A survey of chromosomal and nucleotide sequence variation in Drosophila miranda.
Article in Genetics, 2003. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 20 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
There have recently been several studies of the evolution of Y chromosome degeneration and dosage compensation using the neo-sex chromosomes of Drosophila miranda as a model system. To understand these evolutionary processes more fully, it is necessary to document the general pattern of genetic variation in this species. Here we report a survey of chromosomal variation, as well as polymorphism and divergence data, for 12 nuclear genes of D. miranda. These genes exhibit varying levels of DNA sequence polymorphism. Compared to its well-studied sibling species D. pseudoobscura, D. miranda has much less nucleotide sequence variation, and the effective population size of this species is inferred to be several-fold lower. Nevertheless, it harbors a few inversion polymorphisms, one of which involves the neo-X chromosome. There is no convincing evidence for a recent population expansion in D. miranda, in contrast to D. pseudoobscura. The pattern of population subdivision previously observed for the X-linked gene period is not seen for the other loci, suggesting that there is no general population subdivision in D. miranda. However, data on an additional region of period confirm population subdivision for this gene, suggesting that local selection is operating at or near period to promote differentiation between populations.
