Sequence introgression from exogenous lineages underlies genomic and biological differences among Cryptosporidium parvum IOWA lines.
Article in Water research, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
The IOWA strain of Cryptosporidium parvum is widely used in studies of the biology and detection of the waterborne pathogens Cryptosporidium spp. While several lines of the strain have been sequenced, IOWA-II, the only reference of the original subtype (IIaA15G2R1), exhibits significant assembly errors. Here we generated a fully assembled genome of IOWA-CDC of this subtype using PacBio and Illumina technologies. In comparative analyses of seven IOWA lines maintained in different laboratories (including two sequenced in this study) and 56 field isolates, IOWA lines (IIaA17G2R1) with less virulence had mixed genomes closely related to IOWA-CDC but with multiple sequence introgressions from IOWA-II and unknown lineages. In addition, the IOWA-IIaA17G2R1 lines showed unique nucleotide substitutions and loss of a gene associated with host infectivity, which were not observed in other isolates analyzed. These genomic differences among IOWA lines could be the genetic determinants of phenotypic traits in C. parvum. These data provide a new reference for comparative genomic analyses of Cryptosporidium spp. and rich targets for the development of advanced source tracking tools.
