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

Lateolabrax japonicus is an abundant marine aquatic fish species that is commonly cultured in East Asia due to its high commercial value. In this study, RNA-Seq analysis of L. japonicus was carried out to identify reproduction- and growth-related genes expressed in L. japonicus ovaries at different ages using Illumina sequencing technology. In total, 334,388,688 high-quality reads were obtained in four libraries, i.e., 4-year-old ovaries (4th_Ovary), 3-year-old ovaries (3rd_Ovary), 2-year-old ovaries (2nd_Ovary), and 1-year-old ovaries (1st_Ovary). The reads were then de novo assembled into 101,860 unigenes with an average unigene length of 879 bp. In total, 30,142 unigenes (29.59%) were annotated in public databases, including Nr database (Nr), Swiss-Prot, Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG), and Cluster of Orthologous Groups of proteins (COG), based on sequence similarity. Comparative analysis revealed that there were 35,749, 43,657, and 36,819 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in three comparisons (4th_Ovary versus 3rd_Ovary, 4th_Ovary versus 2rd_Ovary, and 4th_Ovary versus 1st_Ovary, respectively). In total, 24,295 DEGs were different expressed in 4th_Ovary. Enrichment and pathway analyses of the DEGs were also carried out to excavate the candidate genes related to reproduction and growth, and 402 genes that potential involved in the regulation of reproduction and growth were identified, e.g., GnRHR (GnRH receptor), GHR 2 (growth hormone receptor 2), I_LGF1R (insulin-like growth factor 1 receptor), etc. Our findings expanded the genomic resources of L. japonicus and provided fundamental information for further studies.
