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

Osmia spp. is a genus of solitary bees that serves as excellent pollinators for various fruit trees and has the potential to enhance pollination services in both agricultural and natural ecosystems. However, the absence of high-quality genomic resources limits our insights into evolutionary biology and ecological adaptations of Osmia. Here, we present a chromosome-level genome of Osmia excavata, using PacBio, Illumina, and Hi-C data. The genome has a total size of 164.35 Mb, with a scaffold N50 of 9.81 Mb, and the majority of contigs (98.50%, 161.88 Mb) are organized into sixteen chromosomes. BUSCO analysis reveals a completeness score of 99.7% (n = 1,367), with 99.6% identified as single-copy BUSCOs and 0.1% as duplicated BUSCOs. The genome contains 13.46% (22.11 Mb) repetitive elements and encodes 11,452 predicted protein-coding genes. This study provides a crucial genomic resource for our understanding of solitary bees' evolution and ecological roles.
