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 characterization of mitochondrial genome has been evidenced as an efficient field of study for phylogenetic and evolutionary analysis in vertebrates including turtles. The aim of this study was to distinguish the structure and variability of the Trionychidae species mitogenomes through comparative analysis. The complete mitogenome (16796 bp) of an endangered freshwater turtle, Nilssonia nigricans was sequenced and annotated. The mitogenome encoded for 37 genes and a major non-coding control region (CR). The mitogenome was A + T biased (62.16%) and included six overlapping and 19 intergenic spacer regions. The Relative synonymous codon usage (RSCU) value was consistent among all the Trionychidae species; with the exception of significant reduction of Serine (TCG) frequency in N. nigricans, N. formosa, and R. swinhoei. In N. nigricans, most of the transfer RNAs (tRNAs) were folded into classic clover-leaf secondary structures with Watson-Crick base pairing except for trnS1 (GCT). The comparative analysis revealed that most of the tRNAs were structurally different, except for trnE (TTC), trnQ (TTG), and trnM (CAT). The structural features of tRNAs resulted ≥ 10 mismatched or wobble base pairings in 12 tRNAs, which reflects the nucleotide composition in both H- and L-strands. The mitogenome of N. nigricans also revealed two unique tandem repeats (ATTAT)
