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
The European rabbit exists in the wild and has several highly bred domesticated forms. There are well-separated wild European rabbit populations, and intensive breeding has resulted in various forms and utilizations. In this work, we aimed to carry out an extended WGS-based population genomics study on several wild European rabbit populations and selected breeds. Utilizing multiple methods, we showed that although domestic and wild populations were clearly separated, there was evidence of admixture between them in France and Hungary. The populations showed various levels of inbreeding, with one of the Hungarian subpopulations having excess runs of homozygosity. We identified numerous variants fixed in either domestic or wild animals, two of which were found to be fixed at different alleles in the two populations. Some putatively selected regions did not overlap with any known genes in the rabbit genome, suggesting some importance to these intergenic sites. The enrichment of selected regions in certain types of transcription factor binding sites suggests a possible role for these regulatory elements during domestication. In addition, the new high-coverage rabbit whole-genome sequences may provide helpful material for further population genetics analyses.
