Adaptation of Rodents Living in a Highland: Combination of Mitochondrial Introgression and Convergent Molecular Evolution.
Article in Doklady. Biochemistry and biophysics, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Populations of four species of narrow-headed rats of the genus Stenocephalemys were examined for the presence of a mutation in the mitochondrial cytochrome b gene resulting in an amino acid substitution in the translated protein. This substitution was also found in hamsters of the subfamily Sigmodontinae inhabiting the highlands of the Andes. Simulation of three-dimensional structure of the protein showed that this substitution is located in the active site and may have a functional significance. We assumed an independent emergence of this substitution in the populations of two Afroalpine species of Stenocephalemys, which is the first known example of a combination of introgression and convergent molecular evolution.
