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

DNA methylation is an essential epigenetic modification. However, the dynamics of DNA methylation during cabbage bolting remain poorly understood. To investigate changes in DNA methylation during cabbage bolting, we performed whole-genome bisulfite sequencing (WGBS) on both vegetative leaves of non-bolting plants and reproductive leaves of bolting plants in two cabbage accessions. Across the whole genome, the DNA methylation levels on each chromosome showed a negative correlation with gene density, and the methylation levels in reproductive leaves after bolting were higher than those in vegetative leaves before bolting. We identified a total of 10,159 differentially methylated regions (DMRs). GO enrichment analysis revealed that differentially methylated genes were significantly enriched in pathways related to reproductive process and floral organ development. At the subgenome level, MF2 exhibited a higher DNA methylation advantage, and the dominance of all three subgenomes was greater in reproductive leaves than in vegetative leaves. Integrating the transcriptomic data, we found that genes with DNA methylation modifications showed markedly lower expression levels than those without methylation. Two meristem-development-related genes,
