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 Interactive Tree Of Life (https://itol.embl.de) is an online tool for the management, display, annotation and manipulation of phylogenetic and other trees. It is freely available and open to everyone. iTOL version 6 introduces a modernized and completely rewritten user interface, together with numerous new features. A new dataset type has been introduced (colored/labeled ranges), greatly upgrading the functionality of the previous simple colored range annotation function. Additional annotation options have been implemented for several existing dataset types. Dataset template files now support simple assignment of annotations to multiple tree nodes through substring matching, including full regular expression support. Node metadata handling has been greatly extended with novel display and exporting options, and it can now be edited interactively or bulk updated through annotation files. Tree labels can be displayed using multiple simultaneous font styles, with precise positioning, sizing and styling of each individual label part. Various bulk label editing functions have been implemented, simplifying large scale changes of all tree node labels. iTOL's automatic taxonomy assignment functions now support trees based on the Genome Taxonomy Database (GTDB), in addition to the NCBI taxonomy. The functionality of the optional user account pages has been expanded, simplifying the management, navigation and sharing of projects and trees. iTOL currently handles more than one and a half million trees from >130 000 individual user accounts.
