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

More and more studies have focused on microRNAs (miRNAs) expression in the pest Helicoverpa armigera (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) recently. Quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) is being widely used in miRNA expression studies. Suitable reference genes are necessary for the correct analysis of results. In this study, 10 candidate genes of H. armigera were selected and analyzed for their expression stability under different biotic and abiotic conditions with 3 statistical methods, including geNorm, NormFinder, and Bestkeeper. Combination the best number of reference genes was calculated by geNorm. One target gene, let-7, was used to validate the selection of reference genes. The suitable candidate reference genes were shown as follows: miR-9 and U6 snRNA for developmental stages, miR-100 and U6 snRNA for larval tissues, miR-100 and miR-305 for adult tissues, miR-9 and miR-279 for parasitic treatment, miR-998 and U6 snRNA for nuclear polyhedrosis virus infection, miR-9 and U6 snRNA for insecticide treatment, miR-92a, miR-100, and miR-279 for temperature treatment, miR-92a, miR-305, and miR-998 for starvation treatment, miR-9 and miR-279 for light treatment, miR-305 and miR-998 for hormone treatment, and there was not one reference gene suitable for all samples. This study could promote future research on miRNAs expression in H. armigera with optimal reference genes under different experimental conditions.
