Single cell RNA-sequencing reveals no evidence for meiotic sex chromosome inactivation in the threespine stickleback fish.
Article in bioRxiv : the preprint server for biology, 2025. 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
Sex chromosomes often evolve unique patterns of gene expression during spermatogenesis. In many species, sex-linked genes are downregulated during meiosis in response to asynapsis of the heterogametic sex chromosome pair (meiotic sex chromosome inactivation; MSCI). This process has evolved convergently across many taxa with independently derived sex chromosomes. Our understanding how quickly MSCI can evolve and whether it is connected to the degree of sequence degeneration remains limited. Teleost fish are a noteworthy group to investigate MSCI because sex chromosomes have evolved repeatedly across species, often over short evolutionary timescales. Here, we investigate whether MSCI occurs in the threespine stickleback fish (
