Phylogenetic analysis reveals five independent transfers of the chloroplast gene rbcL to the mitochondrial genome in angiosperms.

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
We used the chloroplast gene rbcL as a model to study the frequency and relative timing of transfer of chloroplast sequences to the mitochondrial genome. Southern blot survey of 20 mitochondrial DNAs confirmed three previously reported groups of plants containing rbcL in their mitochondrion, while PCR studies identified a new mitochondrial rbcL. Published and newly determined mitochondrial and chloroplast rbcL sequences were used to reconstruct rbcL phylogeny. The results imply five or six separate interorganellar transfers of rbcL among the angiosperms examined, and hundreds of successful transfers across all flowering plants. By taxonomic criteria, the crucifer transfer is the most ancient, two separate transfers within the grass family are of intermediate ancestry, and the morning-glory transfer is most recent. All five mitochondrial copies of rbcL examined exhibit insertion and/or deletion events that disrupt the reading frame (three are grossly truncated); and all are elevated in the proportion of nonsynonymous substitutions, providing clear evidence that these sequences are pseudogenes.
