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 black soldier fly, Hermetia illucens, is a dipteran insect with a distinctive black body in the adult stage. The larvae of this species possess biological features which can be used for industrial applications. We established an H. illucens field-collected strain to develop an industrial system for recycling organic waste. We constructed whole-genome sequences of the strain of H. illucens and prepared a gene set and its functional annotation data to promote research on the social implementation of H. illucens and genetically characterise this strain. In addition, time-course transcriptome data of the larvae and transcriptome expression data of multiple tissues from 6th instar larvae and male and female adults were prepared. The genome size and its N50 value were approximately 1.05 Gbp and 191 Mbp, respectively. The results of the validation analyses of the genome and transcriptome expression data showed that these data were reliable as reference data, suggesting that they can be used in research on the industrial usage of evolutionary H. illucens or evolutionary or comparative biology.
