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 study of chloroplast genome evolutionary dynamics provides critical insights into plant adaptive evolution and phylogenetic relationships. This research conducted a systematic comparative analysis of chloroplast genomes across 35 species within the Rutaceae family. All genomes displayed the typical quadripartite structure, with sizes ranging from 155 to 161 kb, GC contents between 38.17% and 38.83%, and gene counts varying from 122 to 144. Structural conservation was high across species, with variations mainly localized at the boundaries of inverted repeat (IR) regions. AT-rich mononucleotide simple sequence repeats (SSRs) were dominant and primarily distributed in non-coding regions. Collinearity analysis revealed high sequence conservation alongside lineage-specific rearrangements. Relative synonymous codon usage (RSCU) analysis revealed significant heterogeneity among species, with values ranging from 0.386 to 1.797. ENC-GC3s, GC3-GC12, and PR2 analyses indicated a marked deviation from neutral evolution. Selection pressure analysis indicated strong purifying selection (Ka/Ks < 0.2) acting on photosynthetic system genes, while certain genes (e.g.,
