Detecting bracoviral orthologs distribution in five tsetse fly species and the housefly genomes.
Article in BMC research notes, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
objectiveMutualism between endogenous viruses and eukaryotes is still poorly understood. Several endogenous double-stranded polydnaviruses, bracoviruses, homologous to those present in parasitic braconid wasp genomes were detected in the tsetse fly (Glossina morsitans morsitans). This is peculiar since tsetse flies do not share a reproductive lifestyle similar to wasps, but deliver fully developed larvae that pupate within minutes of exiting their mothers. The objective of this study is to investigate genomic distribution of bracoviral sequences in five tsetse fly species and the housefly, and examine its value as a potential vector control strategy target point. We use comparative genomics to determine the presence, distribution across Glossina species genomes, and evolutionary relationships of bracoviruses of five tsetse fly species and the housefly.
resultsWe report on homologous bracoviruses in multiple Dipteran genomes. Phylogenetic reconstruction using within-species concatenated bracoviral orthologs shows great congruence with previously reconstructed insect species phylogenies. Our findings suggest that bracoviruses present in Diptera originate from a single integration event of the viral genome that occurred in an ancestor insect before the evolutionary radiation of different insect orders.
