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

Saccharina sculpera is a brown alga (kelp) that is rich in fucoidan (a sulphated heteropolysaccharide) and has shown great potential for medical applications. However, fucoidan accumulation mechanisms in S. sculpera have not yet been elucidated owing to the absence of its genome assembly. In this research, we generated a chromosome-level genome of S. sculpera using Illumina, PacBio HiFi, and high-throughput chromosome conformation capture sequencing technologies. The assembled genome was 726.56 Mb in size, with a contig N50 of 1.08 Mb and scaffold N50 of 19.12 Mb. Approximately 98% of the genomic sequences were ultimately anchored to 34 pseudo-chromosomes. Totally, 25,685 protein-coding genes were identified, of which 86.42% were functionally annotated. Additionally, 438.5 Mb repeat sequences were predicted, which accounted for 60.26% of the assembled genome. The chromosome-level genome of S. sculpera offers an invaluable genetic resource for investigating the molecular mechanism underlying fucoidan accumulation in brown algae.
