A chromosome level genome assembly of Homatula variegata from the Yangtze River basin.
Article in Scientific data, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
Homatula variegata is a small benthic loach from the upper Yangtze and adjacent basins with aquaculture and ornamental value but no reference genome. We present a near telomere-to-telomere (T2T) chromosome-level assembly built from PacBio HiFi, Oxford Nanopore ultra-long, Illumina short reads, and Hi-C. The 641.26-Mb genome resolves 24 chromosomes as single contigs (contig N50, 24.40 Mb). Hi-C confirms chromosome-length scaffolding; we detect 24 putative centromeres and 20 terminal telomeric tracts, with 22 chromosomes gap-free and two containing one gap. Annotation identifies 24,479 protein-coding genes, 93% functionally assigned, and 27.13% repetitive content dominated by DNA transposons. Quality assessments show high completeness (BUSCO, 96.48% complete) and base-level accuracy consistent with k-mer and read-mapping metrics. To our knowledge this is the first near T2T-level reference for any loach (Cobitoidei), filling a key gap in Cypriniformes genomics. This resource will enable comparative and population genomics, illuminate adaptation to montane stream habitats, and support selective breeding, conservation, and aquaculture of this native species.
