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

Sex chromosomes in fish provide an intriguing view of how sex-determination mechanisms evolve in vertebrates. Many fish species with single-factor sex-determination systems do not have cytogenetically-distinguishable sex chromosomes, suggesting that few sex-specific sequences or chromosomal rearrangements are present and that sex-chromosome evolution is thus at an early stage. We describe experiments examining the linkage arrangement of a Y-chromosomal GH pseudogene (GH-Y) sequence in four species of salmon (chum, Oncorhynchus keta; pink, O. gorbuscha; coho, O. kisutch; chinook, O. tshawytscha). Phylogenetic analysis indicates that GH-Y arose early in Oncorhynchus evolution, after this genus had diverged from Salmo and Salvelinus. However, GH-Y has not been detected in some Oncorhynchus species (O. nerka, O. mykiss and O. clarki), consistent with this locus being deleted in some lineages. GH-Y is tightly linked genetically to the sex-determination locus on the Y chromosome and, in chinook salmon, to another Y-linked DNA marker OtY1. GH-Y is derived from an ancestral GH2 gene, but this latter functional GH locus is autosomal or pseudoautosomal. YY chinook salmon are viable and fertile, indicating the Y chromosome is not deficient of vital genetic functions present on the X chromosome, consistent with sex chromosomes that are in an early stage of divergence.
