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

Understanding early development offers a striking opportunity to investigate genetic disease, stem cell and assisted reproductive technology. Recent advances in high-throughput sequencing technology have led to the rising influx of omics data, which have rapidly boosted our understanding of mammalian developmental mechanisms. Here, we review the database EmExplorer (a database for exploring time activation of gene expression in mammalian embryos), which systematically organizes the genes from development-related pathways, and which we have already established and continue to update it. The current version of EmExplorer incorporates over 26 000 genes obtained from 306 functional pathways in five species. The function annotations of development-related genes were also integrated into EmExplorer. To facilitate data extraction, the database also contains the following information. (i) The dynamic expression values for each development stage are matched to the corresponding genes. (ii) A two-layer search tool which supports multi-option searching, such as by official symbol, pathway name and function annotation. The returned entries can directly link to the analysis results for the corresponding gene or pathway in the analysis module. (iii) The analysis module provides different gene comparisons at the multi-species level and functional pathway level, which shows the species specificity and stage specificity at the gene or pathway level. (iv) The analysis based on the hypergeometric distribution test reveals the enrichment of gene functions at a particular stage of one organism's pathway. (v) The browser is designed for users with ambiguous searching goals and greatly helps new users to get a general idea of the contents of the database. (vi) The experimentally validated pathways are manually curated and shown on the home page. EmExplorer will be helpful for elucidating early developmental mechanisms and exploring time activation genes. EmExplorer is freely available at http://bioinfor.imu.edu.cn/emexplorer .
