Deep taxon sampling reveals the evolutionary dynamics of novel gene families in
Article in Genome research, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 46 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
The widespread identification of genes without detectable homology in related taxa is a hallmark of genome sequencing projects in animals, together with the abundance of gene duplications. Such genes have been called novel, young, taxon-restricted, or orphans, but little is known about the mechanisms accounting for their origin, age, and mode of evolution. Phylogenomic studies relying on deep and systematic taxon sampling and using the comparative method can provide insight into the evolutionary dynamics acting on novel genes. We used a phylogenomic approach for the nematode model organism
