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

Caenorhabditis auriculariae, which was morphologically described in 1999, was re-isolated from a Platydema mushroom-associated beetle. Based on the re-isolated materials, some morphological characteristics were re-examined and ascribed to the species. In addition, to clarify phylogenetic relationships with other Caenorhabditis species and biological features of the nematode, the whole genome was sequenced and assembled into 109.5 Mb with 16,279 predicted protein-coding genes. Molecular phylogenetic analyses based on ribosomal RNA and 269 single-copy genes revealed the species is closely related to C. sonorae and C. monodelphis placing them at the most basal clade of the genus. C. auriculariae has morphological characteristics clearly differed from those two species and harbours a number of species-specific gene families, indicating its usefulness as a new outgroup species for Caenorhabditis evolutionary studies. A comparison of carbohydrate-active enzyme (CAZy) repertoires in genomes, which we found useful to speculate about the lifestyle of Caenorhabditis nematodes, suggested that C. auriculariae likely has a life-cycle with tight-association with insects.
