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

objectiveThe Clitoria ternate flowers are widely used for its anthocyanin pigmentation. However, the flowers' colour ranges from white to light blue to deep blue, purple or even pink. The butterfly pea flower colours are known to be influenced by variety and not environmental factors. Despite its interest there is a lack of understanding of the level of gene expression between varieties, in producing blue and white butterfly pea flowers. Hence, transcriptome assembly of genes expressed in different butterfly pea flowers and subsequent understanding of the key genes will help in increasing the pigments accordingly. DATA DESCRIPTION: An RNA library was generated from RNA extracted from three different sources of flower petals as in white, light blue and dark blue butterfly pea flowers and sequenced using the Illumina HiSeq Platform. These data sets were then used to produce and assemble the first transcriptome assembly based on Clitoria ternate or commonly known as butterfly pea, paving way for anthocyanin related gene identification.
