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

The pufferfish Takifugu flavidus is an important economic species due to its outstanding flavour and high market value. It has been regarded as an excellent model of genetic study for decades as well. In the present study, three mate-pair libraries of T. flavidus genome were sequenced by the SOLiD 4 next-generation sequencing platform, and the draft genome was constructed with the short reads using an assisted assembly strategy. The draft consists of 50,947 scaffolds with an N50 value of 305.7 kb, and the average GC content was 45.2%. The combined length of repetitive sequences was 26.5 Mb, which accounted for 6.87% of the genome, indicating that the compactness of T. flavidus genome was approximative with that of T. rubripes genome. A total of 1,253 non-coding RNA genes and 30,285 protein-encoding genes were assigned to the genome. There were 132,775 and 394 presumptive genes playing roles in the colour pattern variation, the relatively slow growth and the lipid metabolism, respectively. Among them, genes involved in the microtubule-dependent transport system, angiogenesis, decapentaplegic pathway and lipid mobilization were significantly expanded in the T. flavidus genome. This draft genome provides a valuable resource for understanding and improving both fundamental and applied research with pufferfish in the future.
