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

The scalloped spiny lobster (Panulirus homarus homarus) is an economically important decapod crustacean with high aquaculture potential. Several chromosome-level genomes of this species have been reported. But the lobster or even entire shrimps did not have the telomere-to-telomere assembly until now. Therefore, we present the first near telomere-to-telomere genome assembly of P. h. homarus generated by using pure Oxford Nanopore Technologies ultra-long (ONT) reads and Hi-C sequencing. The final assembly anchored to 73 chromosomes with a contig N50 of 41.1 Mb. 73 chromosomes contain entire 146 telomeres, of which 51 chromosomes have no gaps. A total of 38,396 protein-coding genes were predicted. BUSCO analysis showed a completeness score of 99.8%, indicating a high degree of assembly completeness. This high-quality genomic dataset provides a valuable resource for comparative genomics, evolutionary studies, and genome-assisted breeding of spiny lobsters.
