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

Whole-genome time-series allele frequency data are becoming more prevalent as ancient DNA (aDNA) sequences and data from evolve-and-resequence (E&R) experiments are generated at a rapid pace. Such data presents unprecedented opportunities to elucidate the dynamics of genetic variation under selection. However, despite many methods to infer parameters of selection models from allele frequency trajectories available in the literature, few provide userfriendly implementations for large-scale empirical applications. Here, we present diplo-locus, an open-source Python package that provides functionality to simulate and perform inference from time-series data under the Wright-Fisher diffusion with general diploid selection. The package includes Python modules as well as command-line tools and is available at: https://github.com/steinrue/diplo_locus.
