Genomic Evidence for the Complex Evolutionary History of Macaques (Genus Macaca).
Article in Journal of molecular evolution, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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 genus Macaca is widely distributed, occupies a variety of habitats, shows diverse phenotypic characteristics, and is one of the best-studied genera of nonhuman primates. Here, we reported five re-sequencing Macaca genomes, including one M. cyclopis, one M. fuscata, one M. thibetana, one M. silenus, and one M. sylvanus. Together with published genomes of other macaque species, we combined 20 genome sequences of 10 macaque species to investigate the gene introgression and genetic differences among the species. The network analysis of the SNV-fragment trees indicates a reticular phylogeny of macaque species. Combining the results from various analytical methods, we identified extensive ancient introgression events among macaque species. The multiple introgression signals between different species groups were also observed, such as between fascicularis group species and silenus group species. However, gene flow signals between fascicularis and sinica group were not as strong as those between fascicularis group and silenus group. On the other hand, the unidirect gene flow in M. arctoides probably occurred between the progenitor of M. arctoides and the common ancestor of fascicularis group. Our study also shows that the genetic backgrounds and genetic diversity of different macaques vary dramatically among species, even among populations of the same species. In conclusion, using whole genome sequences and multiple methods, we have studied the evolutionary history of the genus Macaca and provided evidence for extensive introgression among the species.
