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

Eelpouts (Zoarcidae) are known for their bipolar distributions and distinctive biogeographic histories. However, limited genomic data have hindered our understanding of their adaptive evolution. In this study, we present a thoroughly annotated chromosome-level genome assembly of pale eelpout (Lycodes pallidus) generated through the integration of Illumina, PacBio circular consensus, and Hi-C sequencing techniques. The final assembly spans 753.4 Mb, with its high quality confirmed by a scaffold N50 of 28.6 Mb and a Benchmarking Universal Single-Copy Ortholog (BUSCO) completeness of 99.3%. In comparison to other eelpouts and related fishes, the L. pallidus genome is larger and exhibits greater repetitive element content, accounting for approximately 45% of its total length. We annotated 21,419 protein-coding genes, a significant proportion of which are involved in signal transduction mechanisms and transcription. These findings provide valuable genetic resources for elucidating the evolutionary mechanisms underlying polar fish adaptation.
