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

objectiveThe pathogenic fungus Diplodia sapinea is of significant importance due to its primary role inducing tip dieback on various Pinus species which are widely distributed throughout the world. The objective of this study is to further provide comprehensive and specific resources for genome assembly and sequence annotation of this important forest pathogen from China, thereby establishing a robust foundation for future studies on its systematics, population genetics, genomics and global movement. DATA DESCRIPTION: A high-quality genome of D. sapinea strain ZXD319 was sequenced utilizing the Nanopore PromethION and BGI DNBSEQ-T7 platforms. The assembled genome spans a total length of 36.81 Mb, comprising 14 contigs, with a GC content of 56.80% and an N50 value of 2,972,533 bp. It encompasses 11,200 protein-coding genes and 252 noncoding RNAs. The predicted genes were annotated against multiple public databases, and 1,611 potential virulence genes were identified through the Pathogen Host Interactions (PHI) database. Furthermore, the genome comparative analysis of D. sapinea and related species revealed 11,568 gene clusters and 3,436 single-copy clusters. Phylogenetic analysis indicated a close evolutionary relationship between D. sapinea with D. corticola and D. seriata. The genomic data presented herein serve as a valuable resource for future studies on this globally important pathogen.
