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

Here we present the first high-quality chromosome-level genome assembly for Gibbotettix parvipulvillus, a Chinese endemic pygmy grasshopper serving as a significant bioindicator for fragile forest ecosystems and exhibiting unique evolutionary adaptations to restricted microhabitats. Combining 47.43 Gb of PacBio HiFi, 47.32 Gb of Illumina, and 68.34 Gb of Hi-C sequencing data, we achieved an assembly size of 1.42 Gb with exceptional contiguity (contig N50: 100.63 Mb; scaffold N50: 308.03 Mb). The assembly anchored 97.88% of sequences to 7 pseudochromosomes, with chromosome 7 identified as the X chromosome through reduced sequencing coverage (18.04 × versus ~ 34 × for autosomes). Repeat annotation revealed repetitive elements comprise 58.79% of the genome, with LINEs being most abundant (14.15%). We annotated 17,220 protein-coding genes with functional information assigned to 93.82% of them. The assembly demonstrates high completeness (BUSCO score: 98.8% complete genes) and accuracy (read mapping rate > 98.5%). This genomic resource will facilitate research on the evolution of winglessness, adaptation to restricted habitats, and conservation genomics of this ecologically valuable bioindicator taxon.
