W Chromosome Dynamics in Triportheus Species (Characiformes, Triportheidae): An Ongoing Process Narrated by Repetitive Sequences.
Article in The Journal of heredity, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 18 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
Characterizing the abundance and genomic distribution of repetitive DNAs provides information on genome evolution, especially regarding the origin and differentiation of sex chromosomes. Triportheus fishes offer a useful model to explore the evolution of sex chromosomes, since they represent a monophyletic group in which all species share a ZZ/ZW sex chromosome system. In this study, we analyzed the distribution of 13 classes of repetitive DNA sequences by FISH, including microsatellites, rDNAs, and transposable elements in 6 Triportheus species, in order to investigate the fate of the sex-specific chromosome among them. These findings show the dynamic differentiation process of the W chromosome concerning changes in the repetitive DNA fraction of the heterochromatin. The differential accumulation of the same class of repeats on this chromosome, in both nearby and distant species, reflects the inherent dynamism of the microsatellites, as well as the plasticity that shapes the evolutionary history of the sex chromosomes, even among closely related species sharing a same sex chromosome system.
