1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

backgroundComparative study of synonymous codon usage variations and factors influencing its diversification in α - cyanobacterial descendant Paulinella chromatophora and β - cyanobacterium Synechococcus elongatus PCC6301 has not been reported so far. In the present study, we investigated various factors associated with synonymous codon usage in the genomes of P. chromatophora and S. elongatus PCC6301 and findings were discussed.

resultsMutational pressure was identified as the major force behind codon usage variation in both genomes. However, correspondence analysis revealed that intensity of mutational pressure was higher in S. elongatus than in P. chromatophora. Living habitats were also found to determine synonymous codon usage variations across the genomes of P. chromatophora and S. elongatus.

conclusionsWhole genome sequencing of α-cyanobacteria in the cyanobium clade would certainly facilitate the understanding of synonymous codon usage patterns and factors contributing its diversification in presumed ancestors of photosynthetic endosymbionts of P. chromatophora.
