LINE-1-like retrotransposons contribute to RNA-based gene duplication in dicots.
Article in Scientific reports, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 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
RNA-based duplicated genes or functional retrocopies (retrogenes) are known to drive phenotypic evolution. Retrogenes emerge via retroposition, which is mainly mediated by long interspersed nuclear element 1 (LINE-1 or L1) retrotransposons in mammals. By contrast, long terminal repeat (LTR) retrotransposons appear to be the major player in plants, although an L1-like mechanism has also been hypothesized to be involved in retroposition. We tested this hypothesis by searching for young retrocopies, as these still retain the sequence features associated with the underlying retroposition mechanism. Specifically, we identified polymorphic retrocopies (retroCNVs) by analyzing public Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) resequencing data. Furthermore, we searched for recently originated retrocopies encoded by the reference genome of Arabidopsis and Manihot esculenta. Across these two datasets, we found cases with L1-like hallmarks, namely, the expected target site sequence, a polyA tail and target site duplications. Such data suggest that an L1-like mechanism could operate in plants, especially dicots.
