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

Advances in sequencing technology enabling rapid and inexpensive whole-genome sequencing highlight how few genes are functionally characterized. This problem is particularly acute in filamentous fungi, where even in the best studied organisms upward of half of genes are poorly characterized or unannotated. High-throughput tools to identify gene function exist for single-celled organisms, like yeast and bacteria. However, filamentous fungi present challenges to high-throughput gene characterization, including low transformation efficiency and multinucleate cells. Filamentous fungi are critical components of nutrient cycling in ecosystems, form symbioses with plants that improve nutrient uptake, and are devastating human, plant, and animal pathogens causing millions of deaths and substantial crop loss each year. Thus, it is critical to overcome challenges to rapid gene characterization in filamentous fungi. We generated a library of hundreds of millions of uniquely barcoded plasmids containing a broad host-range drug resistance marker for ectopic insertion into filamentous fungal genomes by
