Genomic Patterns of Geographic Differentiation in Drosophila simulans.
Article in Genetics, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 23 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
Geographic patterns of genetic differentiation have long been used to understand population history and to learn about the biological mechanisms of adaptation. Here we present an examination of genomic patterns of differentiation between northern and southern populations of Australian and North American Drosophila simulans, with an emphasis on characterizing signals of parallel differentiation. We report on the genomic scale of differentiation and functional enrichment of outlier SNPs. While, overall, signals of shared differentiation are modest, we find the strongest support for parallel differentiation in genomic regions that are associated with regulation. Comparisons to Drosophila melanogaster yield potential candidate genes involved in local adaptation in both species, providing insight into common selective pressures and responses. In contrast to D. melanogaster, in D. simulans we observe patterns of variation that are inconsistent with a model of temperate adaptation out of a tropical ancestral range, highlighting potential differences in demographic and colonization histories of this cosmopolitan species pair.
