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

Thermosensitive genic male sterility (TGMS) lines are vital for two-line hybrid breeding. However, the molecular mechanism in the reverse TGMS line 05ms in eggplant remains unclear. Weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA) of RNA-seq data revealed modules correlated with fertility conversion enriched in carbohydrate metabolism, lipid metabolism, and mRNA surveillance pathways. Hub genes within these modules were predominantly associated with sugar-related processes, fatty acid metabolism, and nucleotide processing. BSA-seq defined candidate genomic intervals. Integrated analysis of BSA-seq intervals and transcriptomic data identified a candidate gene,
