What animals can teach us about evolution, the human genome, and human disease.
Review in Upsala journal of medical sciences, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
During the past 20 years, since I started as a postdoc, the world of genetics and genomics has changed dramatically. My main research goal throughout my career has been to understand human disease genetics, and I have developed comparative genomics and comparative genetics to generate resources and tools for understanding human disease. Through comparative genomics I have worked to sequence enough mammals to understand the functional potential of each base in the human genome as well as chosen vertebrates to study the evolutionary changes that have given many species their key traits. Through comparative genetics, I have developed the dog as a model for human disease, characterising the genome itself and determining a list of germ-line loci and somatic mutations causing complex diseases and cancer in the dog. Pulling all these findings and resources together opens new doors for understanding genome evolution, the genetics of complex traits and cancer in man and his best friend.
