Chromosomal Polymorphism in the White-Throated Sparrow, Zonotrichia albicollis (Gmelin).
Article in Science (New York, N.Y.), 1966. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 34 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
In a study of 35 white-throated sparrows five distinct karyotypes were observed. A chromosomal polymorphism is present which involves at least two pairs of macrochromosomes. This species is phenotypically polymorphic with selective breeding occurring between morphs. Phenotype is related to chromosomal constitution, and selective breeding appears to maintain heterozygosity within the population.
