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

Understanding how environmental change has shaped species evolution can inform predictions of how future climate change might continue to do so. Research of widespread biological systems spanning multiple climates that have been subject to environmental change can yield generalizable inferences about the neutral and adaptive processes driving lineage divergence during periods of environmental change. We contribute to the growing body of multi-locus phylogeographic studies investigating the effect of Pleistocene climate change on species evolution by focusing on a widespread Australo-Papuan songbird with several mitochondrial lineages that diverged during the Pleistocene, the grey shrike-thrush (Colluricincla harmonica). We employed multi-locus phylogenetic, population genetic and coalescent analyses to (1) assess whether nuclear genetic diversity suggests a history congruent with that based on phenotypically defined subspecies ranges, mitochondrial clade boundaries and putative biogeographical barriers, (2) estimate genetic diversity within and genetic differentiation and gene flow among regional populations and (3) estimate population divergence times. The five currently recognized subspecies of grey shrike-thrush are genetically differentiated in nuclear and mitochondrial genomes, but connected by low levels of gene flow. Divergences among these populations are concordant with recognized historical biogeographical barriers and date to the Pleistocene. Discordance in the order of population divergence events based on mitochondrial and nuclear genomes suggests a history of sex-biased gene flow and/or mitochondrial introgression at secondary contacts. This study demonstrates that climate change can impact sexes with different dispersal biology in different ways. Incongruence between population and mitochondrial trees calls for a genome-wide investigation into dispersal, mitochondrial introgression and mitonuclear evolution.
