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

Ulomoides dermestoides, a member of the Tenebrionidae family, is known by various common names such as Chinese beetle, Chinese weevil, peanut beetle, cancer beetle, or asthma beetle. Despite its origin in Asia, it has achieved global distribution owing to its perceived medicinal properties. In this study, we employed a combination of Illumina short-read, PacBio long-read, and high-throughput chromosome conformation capture (Hi-C) sequencing technologies to produce a high-quality, chromosome-scale genome assembly of U. dermestoides. The assembled genome spans 253.38 Mb across 11 chromosomes, including the two sex chromosomes, X and Y. Key metrics include contig and scaffold N50 values of 9.83 Mb and 28.62 Mb, respectively, with an estimated genome completeness of 99.62%. Annotation efforts identified 15,553 protein-coding genes and revealed that 48.11% of the genome comprises repetitive sequences. This meticulously assembled genome serves as a pivotal resource for elucidating the genetic determinants underlying the species' ecological habits and potential medicinal properties.
