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

The stationary distribution of a sample taken from a Wright-Fisher diffusion with general small mutation rates is found using a coalescent approach. The approximation is equivalent to having at most one mutation in the coalescent tree to the first order in the rates. The sample probabilities characterize an approximation for the stationary distribution from the Wright-Fisher diffusion. The approach is different from Burden and Tang (Theor Popul Biol 112:22-32, 2016; Theor Popul Biol 113:23-33, 2017) who use a probability flux argument to obtain the same results from a forward diffusion generator equation. The solution has interest because the solution is not known when rates are not small. An analogous solution is found for the configuration of alleles in a general exchangeable binary coalescent tree. In particular an explicit solution is found for a pure birth process tree when individuals reproduce at rate [Formula: see text].
