ZZ/ZW Sex Chromosomes in the Madagascar Girdled Lizard,
Article in Genes, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Scincoidea, the reptilian clade that includes girdled lizards, night lizards, plated lizards and skinks, are considered as a lineage with diversity in sex-determining systems. Recently, the hypothesis on the variability in sex determination in skinks and even more the absence of sex chromosomes in some of them has been rivalling. Homologous, evolutionary stable XX/XY sex chromosomes were documented to be widespread across skinks. However, sex determination in the other scincoidean families is highly understudied. ZZ/ZW sex chromosomes have been identified only in night lizards and a single species of plated lizards. It seems that although there are different sex chromosome systems among scincoidean lineages, they share one common trait: they are mostly poorly differentiated and often undetectable by cytogenetic methods. Here, we report one of the exceptions, demonstrating for the first time ZZ/ZW sex chromosomes in the plated lizard
