The correlation between recombination rate and dinucleotide bias in Drosophila melanogaster.
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 8 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
Revealing how recombination affects genomic sequence is of great significance to our understanding of genome evolution. The present paper focuses on the correlation between recombination rate and dinucleotide bias in Drosophila melanogaster genome. Our results show that the overall dinucleotide bias is positively correlated with recombination rate for genomic sequences including untranslated regions, introns, intergenic regions, and coding sequences. The correlation patterns of individual dinucleotide biases with recombination rate are presented. Possible mechanisms of interaction between recombination and dinucleotide bias are discussed. Our data indicate that there may be a genome-wide universal mechanism acting between recombination rate and dinucleotide bias, which is likely to be neighbor-dependent biased gene conversion.
