Identification of annotation artifacts concerning the chalcone synthase (CHS).
Article in BMC research notes, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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.
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
objectiveChalcone synthase (CHS) catalyzes the initial step of the flavonoid biosynthesis. The CHS encoding gene is well studied in numerous plant species. Rapidly growing sequence databases contain hundreds of CHS entries that are the result of automatic annotation. In this study, we evaluated apparent multiplication of CHS domains in CHS gene models of four plant species. MAIN
findingsCHS genes with an apparent triplication of the CHS domain encoding part were discovered through database searches. Such genes were found in Macadamia integrifolia, Musa balbisiana, Musa troglodytarum, and Nymphaea colorata. A manual inspection of the CHS gene models in these four species with massive RNA-seq data suggests that these gene models are the result of artificial fusions in the annotation process. While there are hundreds of seemingly correct CHS records in the databases, it is not clear why these annotation artifacts appeared.
