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

Comprehensive expression datasets were constructed for Apis mellifera and Apis cerana japonica. Firstly, we obtained RNA-Seq data of the samples prepared: post-oviposition day 6 to day 58 samples of A. mellifera workers (larva to adult), and day 9, 10, 12, and 13 samples of A. mellifera queen (larva to pupa), and day 9 to day 18 samples of A. cerana japonica workers (larva to adult). For A. cerana japonica, reference transcript sequence, predicted amino acid sequence, and functional annotation data were generated based on the genome sequence and RNA-Seq data. Using the transcript sequence and RNA-Seq data, comprehensive expression data for all transcripts of A. mellifera and A. cerana japonica were prepared. Hierarchical clustering analyses, the used sample preparation method, and other evaluation results ensured that both sets of expression data were reliable for use as comprehensive reference expression datasets. Therefore, these data can be used for honey bee research or comparative or evolutionary studies on insect species or social insect species at the genetic and molecular levels.
