Identification of GC-rich LAT genes in birds.
Article in PloS one, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Linker for activation of T cells (LAT) plays a key role in T-cell antigenic signaling in mammals. Accordingly, LAT orthologues were identified in the majority of vertebrates. However, LAT orthologues were not identified in most birds. In this study, we show that LAT gene is present in genomes of multiple extant birds. It was not properly assembled previously because of its GC-rich content. LAT expression is enriched in lymphoid organs in chicken. The analysis of the coding sequences revealed a strong conservation of key signaling motifs in LAT between chicken and human. Overall, our data indicate that mammalian and avian LAT genes are functional homologues with a common role in T-cell signaling.
