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

Next-generation sequencing (NGS) has transformed our understanding of foraminifera biology by revealing cryptic diversity, clarifying phylogenetic relationships, and elucidating adaptive mechanisms previously inaccessible through morphological studies alone. This review delves into the potential of NGS in uncovering the secrets of foraminifera. We examine the current state of knowledge, recent breakthroughs, and future directions in applying NGS to foraminiferal research. Specifically, this study highlights how NGS enhances our understanding of foraminiferal taxonomy, adaptation to environmental changes, and functional genomics. Additionally, this review explores the potential of NGS to elucidate the genetic basis of foraminiferal shell formation, symbiotic relationships, and their responses to environmental stressors. We also address challenges and limitations associated with foraminiferal NGS, such as genome assembly complexities, intra-species heterogeneity, and sampling biases. Overall, this review aims to promote further research and collaboration in foraminiferal genomics, ultimately enhancing knowledge of these ecologically significant organisms and their contributions to marine ecosystems and paleoenvironments.
