Basic cytogenetics and physical mapping of ribosomal genes in four Astyanax species (Characiformes, Characidae) collected in Middle Paraná River, Iguassu National Park: considerations on taxonomy and systematics of the genus.
Article in Comparative cytogenetics, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Karyotypes and chromosomal characteristics of both minor and major rDNAs in four fish species known popularly as "lambaris", namely Astyanaxabramis (Jenyns, 1842), Astyanaxasuncionensis Géry, 1972, Astyanaxcorrentinus (Holmberg, 1891) and Astyanax sp. collected from downstream of the Iguassu Falls (Middle Paraná River basin), preservation area of the Iguassu National Park, were analyzed by conventional and molecular protocols. Astyanaxabramis had diploid chromosome number 2n=50 (4m+30sm+8st+8a) and single AgNORs (pair 22), Astyanaxasuncionensis had 2n=50 (8m+24sm+6st+12a) and single AgNORs (pair 20), Astyanax sp. had 2n=50 (4m+26sm+8st+12a) and single AgNORs (pair 25), and Astyanaxcorrentinus had 2n=36 (12m+16sm+2st+6a) and multiple AgNORs (pairs 12, 15, 16, 17). FISH with 18S rDNA showed a single site for Astyanaxabramis, Astyanaxasuncionensis and Astyanax sp. and multiple for Astyanaxcorrentinus (14 sites). FISH with 5S rDNA showed single 5S-bearing loci chromosome pair only for Astyanaxasuncionensis and multiple for Astyanaxabramis (four sites), Astyanaxcorrentinus (five sites) and Astyanax sp. (four sites). Distinct distribution patterns of heterochromatin were observed for karyotypes of all species, with the exception of the first acrocentric chromosome pair characterized by centromeric, interstitial-proximal and telomeric blocks of heterochromatin on the long arm, which may represent homeology between karyotypes of Astyanaxabramis and Astyanaxasuncionensis. Our study showed species-specific characteristics which can serve in diagnosis and differentiation between Astyanaxabramis and Astyanaxasuncionensis, considered cryptic species, as well as strengthening the occurrence of a species of Astyanax not yet described taxonomically. In addition, the data obtained from first cytogenetic studies in Astyanaxcorrentinus suggest a high similarity with Astyanaxschubarti Britski, 1964, suggesting that these species may belong to the same morphological group and that can be phylogenetically related.
