Female philopatry may influence antipredatory behavior in a solitary mammal.
Article in PeerJ, 2025. 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
Whether neighboring individuals are related or not has a number of important ecological & evolutionary ramifications. Kin selection resulting from philopatry can play an important role in social and antipredatory behavior. Ground squirrels exhibit alarm vocalizations in the presence of predators; however, the degree to which kin selection shapes alarm calling behavior varies with species ecology and the degree of relatedness between neighbors. We studied a solitary ground squirrel species that exhibits sex-biased calling propensity to determine if female philopatry may be responsible for sex differences in antipredatory behavior observed in our population. We used double digest restriction-site associated DNA sequencing (ddRADseq) to sample the genomes of Harris's antelope squirrel (
