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 availability of the complete genome of an organism plays a crucial role in the comprehensive analysis of the entire biological entity. Despite the rapid advancements in sequencing technologies, the inherent complexities of genomes inevitably lead to gaps during genome assembly. To obviate this, numerous genome gap-filling tools utilizing long reads have emerged. However, a comprehensive evaluation of these tools is currently lacking. In this study, we evaluated seven software under various ploidy levels and different data generation methods, and assessing them using QUAST and two additional criteria such as accuracy and completeness. Our findings revealed that the performance of the different tools varied across diverse ploidy levels. Based on accuracy and completeness, FGAP emerged as the top-performing tool, excelling in both haploid and tetraploid scenarios. This evaluation of commonly used genome gap-filling tools aims to provide users with valuable insights for tool selection, assisting them in choosing the most suitable genome gap-filling tool for their specific needs.
