Genomic structure, expression, and functional characterization of checkpoint kinase 1 from Penaeus monodon.
Article in PloS one, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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.
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
Chk1 is a cell-cycle regulator. Chk1 has been identified in organisms ranging from yeast to humans, but few researchers have studied Chk1 in shrimps. We cloned Chk1 from the black tiger shrimp (Penaeus monodon). The full-length cDNA sequence of PmChk1 had 3,334 base pairs (bp), with an open reading frame of 1,455 bp. The complete genomic sequence of PmChk1 (11,081 bp) contained 10 exons separated by nine introns. qRT-PCR showed that PmChk1 was highly expressed in the ovaries and gills of P. monodon. The lowest PmChk1 expression was noted in stage III of ovarian development in P. monodon. PmChk1 expression decreased significantly after injection of 5-hydroxytryptamine and eyestalk ablation in P. monodon ovaries. RNA interference experiments were undertaken to examine the expression of PmChk1, PmCDC2, and PmCyclin B. PmChk1 knockdown in the ovaries and hepatopancreas by dsRNA-Chk1 was successful. The localization and level of PmChk1 expression in the hepatopancreas was studied using in situ hybridization, which showed that data were in accordance with those of qRT-PCR. The Gonadosomatic Index of P. monodon after dsRNA-Chk1 injection was significantly higher than that after injection of dsRNA-GFP or phosphate-buffered saline. These data suggest that PmChk1 may have important roles in the ovarian maturation of P. monodon.
