Genetic parentage in large half-sib clutches: theoretical estimates and empirical appraisals.
Article in Genetics, 2000. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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.
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
Nearly all of the 906 embryos from a male-tended nest of the sand goby (Pomatoschistus minutus) were genotyped at two hypervariable microsatellite loci to document conclusively the number of mothers and their relative genetic contributions to the nest. The true number of mothers determined by this nearly exhaustive genetic appraisal was compared to computer simulation treatments based on allele frequencies in the population, assumptions about reproductive skew, and statistical sampling strategies of progeny subsets. The "ground-truthed" appraisal and the theoretical estimates showed good agreement, indicating that for this nest a random sample of approximately 20 offspring would have sufficed for assessing the true number of biological parents (but not necessarily their relative genetic contributions). Also, a general dilocus matrix procedure is suggested for organizing and interpreting otherwise cumbersome data sets when extremely large numbers of full-sib and half-sib embryos from a nest are genotyped at two or more hypervariable loci.
