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

backgroundInsects encounter various environmental stresses, in response to which they generate reactive oxygen species (ROS). Superoxide dismutase (SOD) is an antioxidant metalloenzyme that scavenges superoxide radicals to prevent oxidative damage.

objectiveTo investigate expressions of SODs under oxidative stress in Tenebrio molitor.

methodsHere, we investigated the transcriptional expression of SODs by pesticide and heavy metals in Tenebrio moltior. First, we searched an RNA-Seq database for T. molitor SOD (TmSOD) genes and identified two SOD isoforms (TmSOD1-iso1 and iso2). We examined their activities under developmental stage, tissue-specific, and various types (pesticide and heavy metal) of oxidative stress by using qPCR.

resultsOur results revealed two novel forms of TmSODs. These TmSODs had a copper/zinc superoxide dismutase domain, active site, Cu

conclusionOur findings suggest that the two TmSODs have different functions in T. molitor, providing insights into the detoxification ability of T. molitor.
