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

As sequencing genomes has become increasingly popular, the need for annotation of the resulting assemblies is growing. Structural and functional annotation is still challenging as it includes finding the correct gene sequences, annotating other elements such as RNA and being able to submit those data to databases to share it with the community. Compared to de novo assembly where contiguous chromosomes are a sign of high quality, it is difficult to visualize and assess the quality of annotation. We developed the Companion web server to allow non-experts to annotate their genome using a reference-based method, enabling them to assess the output before submitting to public databases. In this update paper, we describe how we have included novel methods for gene finding and made the Companion server more efficient for annotation of genomes of up to 1 Gb in size. The reference set was increased to include genomes of interest for human and animal health from the fungi and arthropod kingdoms. We show that Companion outperforms existing comparable tools where closely related references are available.
