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 correct and stably expressing reference gene is prerequisite for successful quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR). Investigating gene expression profiling during flower development could enhance our understanding of the molecular mechanisms of flower formation and fertility in Lycium. METHODS AND

resultsIn this study, 11 candidate reference genes in Lycium flower development were selected from transcriptome sequence data and evaluated with five traditional housekeeping genes from previous studies based on qRT-PCR amplification. Comparing the expression stability result of 16 candidate genes using GeNorm, NormFinder, BestKeeper, and Delta Ct algorithms, Lba04g01649 and Lba12g02820 were validated as the optimal reference genes for the flower development of Lycium.

conclusionsThe reference genes identified in this study would improve the accuracy of qRT-PCR quantification of target gene expression in Lycium flower development and facilitate future functional genomics studies on flower development. This research could lay the foundation for the study of the reproduction and development of the Lycium flower.
