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

Opsins underlie visual and non-visual photoreceptions in animals. Vertebrate and arthropod visual opsins belong to different opsin groups and convergently show spectral diversity ranging from the UV to the red region for color vision. Recently, uncharacterized opsins called arthropsin have been identified from various protostome genomes. Arthropsin is clustered with arthropod and mollusk visual opsins and vertebrate blue-sensitive non-visual opsin Opn4. Here, we show that arthropsins have unexpected spectral diversity ranging from the UV to the red region. In particular, water flea (
