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

The large yellow croaker (Larimichthys crocea) is a key aquaculture species, yet gaps in high-quality genomes hinder studies of centromeric and adaptive evolution. This study presents two telomere-to-telomere (T2T), gapless genomes from the Min-Yuedong (MYD) and Daiqu (DQ) populations, which diverged 4.18 million years ago. The centromeres are characterized by a 42 bp tandem repeat (Cen-42) and invasions by endogenous retrovirus 1 (ERV1) of long terminal repeat (LTR) elements. Both populations exhibit transcriptional activity in centromeric regions, but display significant divergence in gene number and composition, likely driven by rapid population expansion and selective pressure. In addition, 5S ribosomal RNA genes form ultra-large tandem repeat clusters in the short-arm regions of more than 10 chromosomes. The T2T genome assemblies resolve previously unassembled regions, identifying 533 and 351 new genes in T2T-MYD and T2T-DQ, respectively. Four population-specific structural variations, located in pla2g4a, eno2, ptprb, and itrp3 are identified. Comparative genomic analyses highlight distinct adaptive features between the two populations, including differences in metabolic efficiency, arachidonic acid metabolism, chemosensasory function, and circadian rhythm. Collectively, these findings deepen the understanding of L. crocea evolution and provide valuable genomic resources for its conservation and breeding.
