Genomic approaches reveal unexpected genetic divergence within Ciona intestinalis.
Article in Journal of molecular evolution, 2005. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 28 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
The invertebrate chordate Ciona intestinalis is a widely used model organism in biological research. Individuals from waters ranging from arctic to temperate are morphologically almost indistinguishable. However, we found significant differences in whole genomic DNA sequence between northern European and Pacific C. intestinalis. Intronic and transposon sequences often appear unrelated between these geographic origins and amino acid substitutions in protein coding sequences indicate a divergence time in excess of 20 MYA. This finding suggests the existence of two cryptic species within the present C. intestinalis species. We found five marker loci which distinguish the two genetic forms by PCR. This analysis revealed that specimens from Naples, Italy, have the Pacific-type genome, perhaps due to human-mediated marine transport of species. Despite major genomic divergence, the two forms could be hybridized in the laboratory.
