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 Neotropical otter, Lontra longicaudis, is an ecologically important species for freshwater ecosystems that is threatened due to habitat destruction and hunting. However, there is limited information regarding the population sizes, genetic diversity, genetic structure and gene flow of the species, which is crucial for the elaboration of conservation plans. The aim of this study was to isolate and characterize microsatellites for L. longicaudis, using Illumina paired-end-sequencing. Initial amplification tests were performed in 48 loci, out of which, 13 yielded high-quality PCR products and thus were further evaluated. Genetic diversity and discrimination power of the 13 microsatellite loci was assessed using 19 non-invasive samples collected in the Jamapa basin in Veracruz, Mexico and blood samples from six captive individuals. All loci were polymorphic, the number of alleles per locus ranged from 4 to 10, the observed heterozygosity from 0.21 to 0.69, and the expected heterozygosity from 0.55 to 0.82. The combined set of 13 microsatellites showed a high power for discriminating among individuals (probability of identity P
