AFED, a comprehensive resource for Aspergillus flavus gene expression profiling.
Article in Database : the journal of biological databases and curation, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
The Aspergillus flavus expression database (AFED) is a comprehensive resource dedicated to exploring gene expression in A. flavus, a significant fungal pathogen that threatens food security by contaminating crops with aflatoxin. Given the complex regulation of aflatoxin biosynthesis and the lack of centralized expression data resources for this important pathogen, a database integrating diverse experimental conditions is essential for understanding its biology and developing control strategies. Public RNA sequencing data were used to quantify gene expression abundance for 604 A. flavus samples from 52 experiments. Using abundance data, we created an AFED accessible through a web-based interface that allows for the expression profiles of genes to be conveniently examined across different growth conditions and life cycle stages. Expression profiles can be visualized through either an interactive bar plot for single gene queries or a heatmap for multiple gene queries. A gene co-expression network based on samples containing at least 10 million mapped reads is also available, which allows users to identify genes that are co-expressed with an individual gene or set of genes and displays the functional enrichment among the co-expressed genes.
