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

The spotted flycatcher (Muscicapa striata) forms with the Mediterranean flycatcher (Muscicapa tyrrhenica) a newly recognized species pair of trans-Saharan migratory passerines. These flycatchers present a nested peripatric distribution, a pattern especially unusual among high dispersal species that questions the eco-evolutionary factors involved during the speciation process. Here, we present a genome assembly for M. striata assembled using a combination of Nanopore and Illumina sequences. The final assembly is 1.08 Gb long and consists of 4,779 contigs with an N50 of 3.2 Mb. The completeness of our M. striata genome assembly is supported by the number of BUSCO (95%) and ultraconserved element (UCE) (4889/5041; 97.0%) loci retrieved. This assembly showed high synteny with the Ficedula albicollis reference genome, the closest species for which a chromosome-scale reference genome is available. Several inversions were identified and will need to be investigated at the family level.
