The Y chromosome of Drosophila melanogaster exhibits chromosome-wide imprinting.

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
Genomic imprinting is well known as a regulatory property of a few specific chromosomal regions and leads to differential behavior of maternally and paternally inherited alleles. We surveyed the activity of two reporter genes in 23 independent P-element insertions on the heterochromatic Y chromosome of Drosophila melanogaster and found that all but one location showed differential expression of one or both genes according to the parental source of the chromosome. In contrast, genes inserted in autosomal heterochromatin generally did not show imprint-regulated expression. The imprints were established on Y-linked transgenes inserted into many different sequences and locations. We conclude that genomic imprinting affecting gene expression is a general property of the Drosophila Y chromosome and distinguishes the Y from the autosomal complement.
