Comparative analysis of codon usage patterns in Rift Valley fever virus.
Article in Genetics and molecular biology, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Rift Valley fever virus (RVFV) is a vector-borne pathogen and is the most widely known virus in the genus Phlebovirus. Since it was first reported, RVFV has spread to western Africa, Egypt and Madagascar from its traditional endemic region, and infections continue to occur in new areas. In this study, we analyzed genomic patterns according to the infection properties of RVFV. Among the four segments of RVFV, the nucleotide composition, overall GC content and the difference of GC composition in the third position of the codons (%GC3) between groups were the largest in the S (NP) segment, showing that more diverse codons were used than in other segments. Furthermore, the results of CAI analysis of the S (NP) segment showed that viruses isolated from regions where no previous infections had been reported had the highest values, indicating greater adaptability to human hosts compared with other viruses. This result suggests that mutations in the S (NP) segment co-evolve with the infected hosts and may lead to expansion of the geographic range. The distinctive codon usage patterns observed in specific genomic regions of a group with similar infection properties may be related to the increasing likelihood of RVFV infections in new areas.
