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

Corynosoma obtuscens Lincicome, 1943 (Acanthocephala: Polymorphidae) is synonymised with Corynosoma australe Johnston, 1937 based on combined morphological and molecular evidence. Morphological comparison of C. obtuscens (24 males and 27 females) collected from a California sea lion Zalophus californianus (Lesson) in California, USA, with the type-specimens of C. obtuscens and C. australe, and with published data on C. australe collected from different hosts and regions showed no significant differences. The levels of genetic divergence in the cox1 sequences obtained from C. obtuscens from a California sea lion in the present study and C. australe from otariid seals from Argentina and penguins from Brazil ranged between 1.4-1.6% and was considered to represent intraspecific variability. Additionally, cox1 sequences were generated for Andracantha phalacrocoracis (Yamaguti, 1939), Corynosoma semerme (Forssell, 1904), C. strumosum (Rudolphi, 1802), C. validum Van Cleave, 1953 and C. villosum Van Cleave, 1953. Our results revealed inconsistency in the identification of material used as a source of the previously published sequence data for C. obtuscens and C. magdaleni Montreuil, 1958.
