Meiotic crossover interference: Methods of analysis and mechanisms of action.
Article in Current topics in developmental biology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Segregation of chromosomes during meiosis, to form haploid gametes from diploid precursor cells, requires in most species formation of crossovers physically connecting homologous chromosomes. Along with sister chromatid cohesion, crossovers allow tension to be generated when chromosomes begin to segregate; tension signals that chromosome movement is proceeding properly. But crossovers too close to each other might result in less sister chromatid cohesion and tension and thus failed meiosis. Interference describes the non-random distribution of crossovers, which occur farther apart than expected from independence. We discuss both genetic and cytological methods of assaying crossover interference and models for interference, whose molecular mechanism remains to be elucidated. We note marked differences among species.
