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

Sinhalese and Vedda people are respectively the major ethnic group and the descendants of the probably earliest inhabitants of Sri Lanka, both believed to have a long history of settlement on the island. However, very little information is available on the origin and possible migration patterns of the two populations. Some studies have focused on (CA) dinucleotide repeat variations located in the mitochondrial hypervariable region 3 (HVS3) (base pairs 514-524) as a useful biomarker to understand migration patterns of different populations. Hence, here we analyze these repeat variations in these two ethnic groups to understand their historical roots and possible patterns of gene flow. Blood samples were collected from healthy, maternally unrelated individuals (N = 109) and mitochondrial D-loop was amplified and sequenced. The (CA)
