1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Restriction-site associated DNA sequencing (RAD-seq) can identify and score thousands of genetic markers from a group of samples for population-genetics studies. One challenge of de novo RAD-seq analysis is to distinguish paralogous sequence variants (PSVs) from true single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) associated with orthologous loci. In the absence of a reference genome, it is difficult to differentiate true SNPs from PSVs, and their impact on downstream analysis remains unclear. Here, we introduce a network-based approach, PMERGE that connects fragments based on their DNA sequence similarity to identify probable PSVs. Applying our method to de novo RAD-seq data from 150 Atlantic salmon (
