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 Tyrrhenian tree frog (Hyla sarda) is a small cryptically coloured amphibian found in Corsica, Sardinia, and the Tuscan Archipelago. Investigation into the species' evolutionary history has revealed phenotypic changes triggered by glaciation-induced range expansion, but understanding the genetic basis of this trait variation has been hampered by the lack of a reference genome. To address this, we assembled a chromosome-level genome of Hyla sarda using PacBio HiFi long reads, Bionano optical maps, and Hi-C data. The assembly comprises 13 assembled chromosomes, spanning a total length of 4.15 Gb with a scaffold N50 of 385 Mb, a BUSCO completeness of 94.60%, and a k-mer completeness of 98.30%. Approximately 75% of the genome consists of repetitive elements. We annotated 22,847 protein-coding genes with a BUSCO completeness of 94.60% and an OMArk completeness of 93.74%. This high-quality assembly provides a valuable resource for studying phenotypic evolution and its genomic basis during range expansion, and will assist future investigations into the population and conservation genomics of Hyla sarda.
