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

backgroundJuvenile hormone (JH) is synthesized by the corpora allata (CA) and controls development and reproduction in insects. We recently used CRISPR/Cas9 to establish a line lacking the enzyme that catalyzes the final step of JH biosynthesis in mosquitoes, a P450 epoxidase. The CA of the epox

resultsWe performed triplicate RNA-seq analyses of female WT and epox

conclusionsOur results suggest that epoxidase deficiency leads to a reduction in JH signaling that has significant effects on Ae. aegypti ovarian transcriptome profiles. Ecdysteroid titers are dysregulated in the mutants, leading to a significant delay in the expression of vitelline membrane genes and other transcripts. We discovered changes in the expression of 230 long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) that may play an important role in the regulation of ovarian genes.
