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

Nemipterus japonicus is an economically important demersal fish species inhabiting warm coastal waters of the Indo-West Pacific region, yet its genomic resources remain scarce. Here, we successfully assembled a high-quality chromosome-level reference genome of N. japonicus by integrating Illumina, PacBio, and Hi-C sequencing technologies. The genome assembly spans 723.27 Mb, with a contig N50 of 30.83 Mb, and 97.04% of the contigs were anchored onto 22 pseudochromosomes, yielding a scaffold N50 of 30.96 Mb. A total of 23,514 protein-coding genes and 6,532 non-coding RNAs were predicted, with repetitive sequences accounting for 21.84% of the genome. Comparative genomic analysis revealed that N. japonicus has 218 expanded and 1,076 contracted gene families, with the divergence times of 56.9 to 85.9 million years ago from three Sparidae species. Positive selection analysis further identified 163 positively selected genes potentially involved in growth and development, reproduction, immune response, and DNA repair of N. japonicus. This study provides fundamental data for investigating the genetic evolution of N. japonicus and the genomes of other Nemipterid fish.
