1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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 unusual mode of mitochondrial DNA inheritance, with two separate: maternal (F) and paternal (M) lineages, gives unique opportunities to study the evolution of the mitochondrial genome. This system was first discovered in the marine mussels Mytilus. The three related species: Mytilus edulis, Mytilus galloprovincialis and Mytilus trossulus form a complex in which the divergence of M and F lineages pre-dates the speciation. The complete mitochondrial genomes of both lineages were known for all species except Pacific M. trossulus. Here we report, for the first time, the complete sequences of both mitochondrial genomes of Pacific M. trossulus, filling the gap. While the reported M and F genomes are highly diverged (26%), they have similar organisation. The only difference is the translocation of one tRNA gene into the long, mosaic control region of the F genome. Consistent presence of an ORF which most likely represents the atp8 gene was confirmed in both genomes. The predicted protein has characteristics expected of the functional atp8 even though the M and F versions are markedly different in length. Comparative analysis involving all three species led to the conclusion that the cause of a faster evolution of atp8 and Mytilus mtDNA in general is most likely the Compensation-Draft Feedback process coupled with relatively relaxed selection in the M lineage. Thus, we postulate that the adaptive changes may have played a role in the emergence of highly diverged, barely recognizable atp8 in Mytilus mussels.
