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

backgroundA new Liobagrus fish was reported from the Korean Peninsula, but research on this taxon is lacking. Moreover, existing research on the mitogenome of the genus Liobagrus in Korea is very limited, and no studies have been conducted on structural characteristics of transfer RNA (tRNA) or gene order comparisons between taxa; instead, research has been restricted to basic phylogeny.

objectiveThe complete mitochondrial genome of Liobagrus geumgangensis was analyzed for the first time. We then aimed to reconstruct the phylogenetic relationships of the genus Liobagrus and estimate the divergence time of speciation events.

methodsWe used a dissected fin clip from an adult of Liobagrus geumgangensis. Genomic DNA was extracted and analyzed with whole genome sequencing (WGS) and assembled by the NOVOPlasty method. The mitogenome sequence was annotated, and a genome map, tRNA structure, and phylogenetic tree were constructed using maximum likelihood analysis. In addition, divergence time was estimated.

resultsThe mitochondrial genome was 16,522 bp in length and comprised 37 genes. The overall base composition was 30.5% A, 25.5% T, 28.4% C, and 15.7% G. Most tRNAs exhibited the typical clover leaf shape, except trnS1. Phylogenetic analysis revealed that Liobagrus geumgangensis clustered within a clade with four other Liobagrus species exclusive to the southern region of the Korean Peninsula. Its divergence was estimated to have occurred during the late Miocene.

conclusionCharacteristics of Liobagrus geumgangensis mitogenome were consistent with those of other torrent catfish species. Time scale estimation revealed distinct groupings, with some distributed across mainland Asia and others in the southern region of the Korean Peninsula. Notably, the Korean Peninsula group was identified as its own lineage, comprising entirely endemic species.
