Evidence of cancer-linked rodent zoonoses from biophysical genomic variations.
Article in Scientific reports, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
As a mechanism to explore the role of environmental adaptation in establishing the optimal distribution of single nucleotide polymophisms (SNPs) within resident homeostatic populations, relationships between quantified environmental parameters and the frequencies of the variants are being explored. We have performed sequential double-blind scans on more than 30% of chromosome 3 in an attempt to discover possible relationships using simple mathematical functions that are indicative of "adaptive forces" on the variants due to specific quantified environmental agents. We have found an association of rs13071758 with rodent zoonotic diseases. This variant is within the FHIT gene, which spans the most fragile of the common fragile sites in human lymphoblasts. FHIT, which is highly sensitive to environmental carcinogens, is partially lost in most human cancers. This finding is consistent with other studies postulating an association between rodent zoonoses and cancer. We quantify the adaptive force on the T allele as 0.28 GEUs per unit of zoonotic rodent host richness.
