Characterization and distribution of de novo mutations in the zebra finch.
Article in Communications biology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Germline de novo mutations (DNMs) provide the raw material for evolution. The DNM rate varies considerably between species, sexes and chromosomes. Here, we identify DNMs in the zebra finch (Taeniopygia guttata) across 16 parent-offspring trios using two genome assemblies of different quality. Using an independent genotyping assay, we validate 82% of the 150 candidate DNMs. DNM rates are consistent between both assemblies, with estimates of 6.14 × 10
