Inferring Human Demographic Histories of Non-African Populations from Patterns of Allele Sharing.
Article in American journal of human genetics, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 14 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
Recent human-genetics studies have come to different conclusions regarding how and when modern humans spread out of Africa and into the rest of the world. I present here a simple parsimony-based analysis that suggests that East Asians and Melanesians are sister groups, and I discuss what implications this has for recent claims made about the demographic histories of non-African populations.
