Phylogeny of dinoflagellate plastid genes recently transferred to the nucleus supports a common ancestry with red algal plastid genes.
Article in Journal of molecular evolution, 2008. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
It is generally accepted that peridinin-containing dinoflagellate plastids are derived from red alga, but whether they are secondary plastids equivalent to plastids of stramenopiles, haptophytes, or cryptophytes, or are tertiary plastids derived from one of the other secondary plastids, has not yet been completely resolved. As secondary plastids, plastid gene phylogeny should mirror that of nuclear genes, while incongruence in the two phylogenies should be anticipated if their origin was as tertiary plastids. We have analyzed the phylogeny of plastid-encoded genes from Lingulodinium as well as that of nuclear-encoded dinoflagellate homologues of plastid-encoded genes conserved in all other plastid genome sequences. Our analyses place the dinoflagellate, stramenopile, haptophyte, and cryptophyte plastids firmly in the red algal lineage, and in particular, the close relationship between stramenopile plastid genes and their dinoflagellate nuclear-encoded homologues is consistent with the hypothesis that red algal-type plastids have arisen only once in evolution.
