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 earthworm (Drawida gisti) is an ecologically important sentinel species for soils that is widely distributed throughout Eastern Asia; however, the molecular tools required for genetic diversity studies of this earthworm are still rare. The aim of the study was to develop and characterize microsatellite markers in D. gisti and to evaluate their transferability to other Drawida species. We employed a RAD-seq approach to develop 12 microsatellite markers for D. gisti. The characterization and analysis of loci was achieved using 24 individuals of D. gisti from a natural population. The number of alleles per locus ranged from four to eleven, with an average of 6.5. Observed and expected heterozygosities varied from 0.708 to 0.958, and from 0.568 to 0.883, respectively. No loci presented significant deviations from the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, while linkage disequilibrium was detected between three loci. Cross-species amplification tests suggested that the transferability of ten loci was positive for the two congeners D. japonica and D. ghilarovi. This set of microsatellite markers may be used to evaluate the genetic diversity and population structures of D. gisti and related species in the future.
