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

backgroundTransposable elements (TEs) are short, mobile DNA elements that are known to play important roles in the genomes of many eukaryotic species. The identification and categorization of these elements is a critical task for many genomic studies, and the continued increase in the number of de novo assembled genomes demands new tools to improve the efficiency of this process. For this reason, we developed RepBox, a suite of Python scripts that combine several pre-existing family-specific TE detection methods into a single user-friendly pipeline.

resultsBased on comparisons of RepBox with the standard TE detection software RepeatModeler, we find that RepBox consistently classifies more elements and is also able to identify a more diverse array of TE families than the existing methods in plant genomes.

conclusionsThe performance of RepBox on two different plant genomes indicates that our toolbox represents a significant improvement over existing TE detection methods, and should facilitate future TE annotation efforts in additional species.
