Chromosome-level genome assembly and annotation of the termite Reticulitermes chinensis Snyder.
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
Termites belong to the infraorder Isoptera within the order Blattodea. Reticulitermes chinensis Snyder, a species in the Rhinotermitidae family, remains a major pest causing severe damage to wooden structures in buildings. Here, the chromosome-level genome of R. chinensis was assembled using PacBio and Hi-C technologies. The final genome comprises 21 pseudochromosomes, with a total size of 1.02 Gb. The scaffold N50 is 47.29 Mb, the GC content is 29.46%, and 94% of sequences were anchored to pseudochromosomes. The BUSCO completeness score is 97.6%. The genome contains 23,733 predicted protein-coding genes, and 48.74% of it consists of repetitive sequences. This high-quality genome is conducive to understanding unique termite traits such as social behavior, efficient lignocellulose digestion, and evolutionary adaptations.
