Detecting gene expression in Caenorhabditis elegans.
Review in Genetics, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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.
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
Reliable methods for detecting and analyzing gene expression are necessary tools for understanding development and investigating biological responses to genetic and environmental perturbation. With its fully sequenced genome, invariant cell lineage, transparent body, wiring diagram, detailed anatomy, and wide array of genetic tools, Caenorhabditis elegans is an exceptionally useful model organism for linking gene expression to cellular phenotypes. The development of new techniques in recent years has greatly expanded our ability to detect gene expression at high resolution. Here, we provide an overview of gene expression methods for C. elegans, including techniques for detecting transcripts and proteins in situ, bulk RNA sequencing of whole worms and specific tissues and cells, single-cell RNA sequencing, and high-throughput proteomics. We discuss important considerations for choosing among these techniques and provide an overview of publicly available online resources for gene expression data.
