Genetic Polymorphism of Y-Chromosome in Turkmen Population from Turkmenistan.
Article in Genes, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
This study investigates the Y-chromosome genetic diversity of the Turkmen population in Turkmenistan, analyzing 23 Y-STR loci for the first time in a sample of 100 individuals. Combined with comparative data from Turkmen populations in Afghanistan, Iran, Iraq, Russia, and Uzbekistan, this analysis offers insights into the genetic structure and relationships among Turkmen populations across regions across Central Asia and the Near East. High haplotype diversity in the Turkmen of Turkmenistan is shaped by founder effects (lineage expansions) from distinct haplogroups, with haplogroups Q and R1a predominating. Subhaplogroups Q1a and Q1b identified in Turkmenistan trace back to ancient Y-chromosome lineages from the Bronze Age. Comparative analyses, including genetic distance (RST), median-joining network, and multidimensional scaling (MDS), highlight the genetic proximity of the Turkmen in Turkmenistan to those in Afghanistan and Iran, while Iraqi Turkmen display unique characteristics, aligning with Near Eastern populations. This study underscores the Central Asian genetic affinity across most Turkmen populations. It demonstrates the value of deep-sequencing Y-chromosome data in tracing the patrilineal history of Central Asia for future studies. These findings contribute to a more comprehensive understanding of Turkmen genetic ancestry and add new data to the ongoing study of Central Asian population genetics.
