Population genomics advances in frontier ethnic minorities in China.

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
China, with its large geographic span, possesses rich genetic diversity across vast frontier regions in addition to the Han Chinese majority. Importantly, demographic events and various natural and cultural environments in Chinese frontier regions have shaped the genomic diversity of ethnic minorities via local adaptations. Thus, insights into the genetic diversity and adaptive evolution of these under-represented ethnic groups are crucial for understanding evolutionary scenarios and biomedical implications in East Asian populations. Here, we focus on ethnic minorities in Chinese frontier regions and review research advances regarding genomic diversity, genetic structure, population history, genetic admixture, and local adaptation. We first provide an overview of the extensive genetic diversity across populations in different Chinese frontier regions. Next, we summarize research progress regarding genetic ancestry, demographic history, the adaptive process, and the archaic identification of multiple ethnic minorities in different Chinese frontier regions. Finally, we discuss the gaps and opportunities in genomic studies of Chinese populations and the need for a more comprehensive understanding of genomic diversity and the evolution of populations of East Asian ancestry in the post-genomic era.
