Evidence for avian cell autonomous sex identity (CASI) and implications for the sex-determination process?
Review in Chromosome research : an international journal on the molecular, supramolecular and evolutionary aspects of chromosome biology, 2012. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 20 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
For the majority of animals, males and females are obviously different in terms of appearance, behaviour and physiology, and until recently, these differences were considered to be the result of hormone actions. However, there is now considerable evidence that the development of some sexually dimorphic structures/behaviours is a function of properties inherent to male and female cells (hormone independent). The relative contribution of hormones and cellular identity to the development of the phenotype is not clear and is likely to vary from species to species. The study of gynandromorph birds and chimeric embryos has greatly assisted efforts to distinguish between the effects of hormones and inherent cellular factors on phenotype. It is now clear that in birds, male/female differences are not primarily the result of hormone action and that male and female somatic cells possess a cell autonomous sex identity (CASI). Here, we review evidence for CASI in birds and discuss the implications for the process of sex determination.
