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

The cultivation of the red alga Pyropia (nori) is among the most significant aquaculture industries in East Asia. Nutrient deficiency-induced "discoloration" poses a serious threat to the industry, substantially impacting both harvest quality and production levels. In this study, we conducted transcriptome analysis (RNA-Seq) of P. yezoensis to gain deeper insights into the molecular mechanisms underlying physiological responses to nutrient limitation that lead to discoloration. Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway enrichment analysis estimated that under nutrient-rich conditions, pathways involved in photosynthesis (carbon fixation) and respiration (tricarboxylic acid [TCA] cycle and glycolysis) are more activated. In contrast, under nutrient-deficient conditions, upregulation of genes related to the uptake of external substances and stress response was observed. Additionally, seven genes (ant1-2, pup, drg2, ankrd, bckdha, lhcb, and an unknown gene) identified from the RNA-Seq results as potential discoloration markers were successfully validated through RT-qPCR analysis. The fundamental molecular insights into discoloration in P. yezoensis provided by this study will aid in developing future discoloration prediction methods and breeding discoloration-resistant Pyropia varieties.
