1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Fish species of the family Scatophagidae possessing known candidate sex-determining genes (male-specific dmrt1Ys), offer suitable models for studying sex chromosome evolution. Here, we analyzed sex chromosome turnover events in three representative fish species of the family Scatophagidae, belonging to the genera Scatophagus and Selenotoca, which diverged 12.8 million years ago (Mya). Prior to the divergence of Sc. argus and Sc. tetracanthus 7.2 Mya, their dmrt1Y was differentiated from its locus, the truncated dmrt1ΔX, through allelic variation. The Y chromosome (Chr1) of Sc. tetracanthus is the result of the fusion of the original Y chromosome (Chr4) with an autosome (Chr13). The Se. multifasciata dmrt1Y arose from a duplication of dmrt1 on Chr4 and then translocated to the new Y chromosome (Chr18). The divergent evolutionary trajectories of the dmrt1Ys were accompanied by sex chromosome turnover in these three species. The sex chromosomes of the Scatophagidae family have evolved rapidly, albeit not randomly.
