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

Halisarca dujardinii is a marine sponge known for its ability to completely regenerate via cell reaggregation. Here we present the first chromosome-level genome assembly of H. dujardinii, generated using Oxford Nanopore long reads, Illumina short reads, and Hi-C data. The final assembly spans 226.5 Mbp and is organized into 21 chromosome-scale scaffolds, representing the full nuclear genome, with an assembly N50 of 10.1 Mbp. In addition, we report the complete mitochondrial genome for H. dujardinii, assembled as a circular molecule and annotated to contain 14 protein-coding genes. We provide a comprehensive genome annotation comprising 14,565 nuclear protein-coding genes, of which 85.6% are functionally annotated, along with repetitive elements and non-coding RNAs. Transcript models were refined using extensive bulk and single-cell RNA sequencing data, enabling accurate annotation of 3' untranslated regions. This new genomic resource provides a valuable foundation for investigating the molecular basis of sponge regeneration, as well as for comparative studies of sponge evolution and marine biology.
