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

Humans and chimpanzees both exhibit a diverse set of tool use skills which suggests selection for tool manufacture and use occurred in the common ancestors of the two species. Our group has previously reported phenotypic and genetic associations between tool use skill and gray matter covariation, as quantified by source-based morphometry (SBM), in chimpanzees. As a follow up study, here we evaluated repeatability in heritability in SBM components and their phenotypic association with tool use skill in two genetically independent chimpanzee cohorts. Within the two independent cohorts of chimpanzees, we identified 8 and 16 SBM components, respectively. Significant heritability was evident for multiple SBM components within both cohorts. Further, phenotypic associations between tool use performance and the SBM components were largely consistent between the two cohorts; the most consistent finding being an association between tool use performance and an SBM component including the posterior superior temporal sulcus (STS) and superior temporal gyrus (STG), and the interior and superior parietal regions (p < 0.05). These findings indicate that the STS, STG, and parietal cortices are phenotypically and genetically implicated in chimpanzee tool use abilities.
