Revision of the Most Primitive Taxa of the Family Gyrodactylidae (van Beneden et Hesse, 1864) (Platyhelminthes, Monopisthocotyla) Based on ITS rDNA Phylogeny.
Article in Genes, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
backgroundFor the past 25 years, the ITS rDNA (ITS1-5.8S-ITS2) of Gyrodactylidae has been crucial for species identification, description, and phylogeny. This family includes 25 genera parasitizing marine and freshwater fish, initially distinguished by morphological differences in attachment and/or male copulatory organs.
methodsA phylogeny based on ITS rDNA was proposed to address these challenges, using only complete sequences of primitive taxa. Fifty-four sequences were aligned with the MUSCLE v5.1 algorithm, creating a 1590 ps long matrix. Maximum Likelihood (ML) and Bayesian Inference (BI) methods with the models TVM+F+G4 and SYM+G4 for ITS1-ITS2 and 5.8S, respectively, were inferred using IQ-TREE v2.3.5 and BEAST v2.7.6.0.
resultsThe findings revealed eleven main lineages. Four of them are proposed for classification into new genera:
conclusionsThe presented phylogeny provides a foundation for developing a classification system within Gyrodactylidae that is both reasonable and comprehensive.
