Investigating the genetic characteristics of the Csangos, a traditionally Hungarian speaking ethnic group residing in Romania.
Article in Journal of human genetics, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Csango people are an East-Central European ethnographic group living mostly in the historical region of Moldavia, Romania. Their traditional language, the Csango is an old Hungarian dialect, which is a severely endangered language due to language shift. Their origin is still disputed among experts and there are many hypotheses since the 19th century. Previous genetic studies found connection with ethnic groups living in Hungary and provided evidence which might support their Hungarian origin. Another study found Inner Asian Altaic ancestry in their genetic makeup. The goal of this study was to analyze the genetic characteristics of the Csango people by comparing their genetic characteristics to contemporary Eurasian populations based on genome-wide autosomal marker data. Our findings suggest that genetic affinity of Csangos to Hungarians is more significant than to Romanians. They also have a detectable connection with Central-Asian and Siberian Turkic ethnic groups. Besides the presumable Middle Eastern/Central-Asian Turkic ancestry, Csangos show ~4% Turkic ancestry from Central Asia/Siberia, which makes them unique in comparison to all other East-Central European populations investigated in this study. The admixture that resulted in this Turkic ancestry could have occurred 30-40 generations ago, which date interval corresponds to Hungarian historical events regarding their migration and the conquest of the Carpathian basin.
