The mutual history of Schlegel's Japanese gecko (Reptilia: Squamata: Gekkonidae) and humans inscribed in genes and ancient literature.
Article in PNAS nexus, 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
Knowing how the present distribution of organisms was formed is an essential issue in evolutionary ecology. Recently, the distribution of organisms on Earth has been significantly changed by human-mediated dispersal due to globalization. Therefore, significant attention has been paid to such processes. However, although humankind has taken considerable time to achieve modernization, the impact of ancient human activity on ecosystems has not yet been thoroughly studied. We hypothesized that ancient urban development and transitions had a non-negligible effect on species distribution. Inferring the impact of past human activity on ecosystems from ancient literature and verifying that impact by genetic analysis and human history is an effective means of tackling this problem. As geckos, a popular neighbor of human dwellings, are good material for this model, we performed this combination approach using Schlegel's Japanese gecko,
