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 ant Crematogaster osakensis (Hymenoptera: Formicidae: Myrmicinae) serves as a valuable model organism for investigating queen-specific traits, such as reproductive capacity and longevity, at the cellular and molecular levels. To support future research on queen traits using molecular techniques, including genome editing and multi-omics data analyses, we performed whole-genome sequencing of this species. The genome size of C. osakensis was estimated to be 284 Mb, with a heterozygosity of 0.26%. Annotation revealed the presence of 16,053 protein-coding genes. Furthermore, using the coding sequences annotated in this study, we reanalyzed previously obtained transcriptome data to identify highly expressed genes in the reproductive organs of queens and males. This data will contribute to a deeper understanding of the genetic mechanisms underlying reproductive strategies in ants.
