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

PLAZA is a platform for comparative, evolutionary, and functional plant genomics. It makes a broad set of genomes, data types and analysis tools available to researchers through a user-friendly website, an API, and bulk downloads. In this latest release of the PLAZA platform, we are integrating a record number of 134 high-quality plant genomes, split up over two instances: PLAZA Dicots 5.0 and PLAZA Monocots 5.0. This number of genomes corresponds with a massive expansion in the number of available species when compared to PLAZA 4.0, which offered access to 71 species, a 89% overall increase. The PLAZA 5.0 release contains information for 5 882 730 genes, and offers pre-computed gene families and phylogenetic trees for 5 274 684 protein-coding genes. This latest release also comes with a set of new and updated features: a new BED import functionality for the workbench, improved interactive visualizations for functional enrichments and genome-wide mapping of gene sets, and a fully redesigned and extended API. Taken together, this new version offers extended support for plant biologists working on different families within the green plant lineage and provides an efficient and versatile toolbox for plant genomics. All PLAZA releases are accessible from the portal website: https://bioinformatics.psb.ugent.be/plaza/.
