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 2026 Nucleic Acids Research database issue has 182 papers from across biology and neighbouring fields. Eighty-four of these papers describe new databases, while 86 are updates on databases that have previously appeared here. Twelve more papers cover databases most recently published elsewhere. New nucleic acid databases include NapRNAdb for noncapped RNA and GlycoRNAdb. Protein structure is covered by updates from wwPDB members and the AlphaFold Database; SMART, PROSITE, and eggNOG cover domains and families. The Open Enzyme Database and QSproteome are new community-orientated initiatives. JoGo covers hierarchically named and contextualised human haplotypes in the issue's first Breakthrough paper; So3D provides genuinely 3D spatial transcriptomics in the other. Foundational databases Genenames.org and Gene Ontology also provide updates. The Database Issue is freely available on the Nucleic Acids Research website (https://academic.oup.com/nar). At the NAR online Molecular Biology Database Collection (http://www.oxfordjournals.org/nar/database/c/), over the past year, 899 entries were reviewed, 96 new resources added, and 319 discontinued URLs removed, bringing the total number of databases to 2173.
