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

Carrot taproots exhibit a wide range of colors due to variations in carotenoid and anthocyanin contents. TouXinHong4 (TXH4), a Chinese red carrot landrace from western China, is appreciated for its storability, stress tolerance, and good flavor. In this study, we generated a high-quality, telomere-to-telomere (T2T), gap-free genome assembly of TXH4, with a total size of 449.92 Mb. Repetitive sequences accounted for 48.6% of the genome. A total of 34 225 genes were identified, with 34 016 genes associated with at least one functional annotation. Comparison with two previously assembled carrot genomes,
