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

The sex chromosomes of fish are usually homomorphic and recently derived, making them an ideal model to understand the origin and evolution of sex chromosomes in vertebrates. Here, combined Pacbio, Hi-C, and Illumina sequencing of the male mandarin fish (Siniperca chuatsi) genome enabled the assembly of a high-quality chromosome-level genome, including highly resolved X and Y chromosome assemblies. Genome wide association study (GWAS) and coverage information analysis revealed a 2.0 Mbp sex determining region (SDR). A Y-specific duplication of the anti-Müllerian hormone (amh) gene, amhy, was identified that encoded a truncated AMH protein. Loss of function and overexpression experiments demonstrated that amhy may act as a male sex-determining gene (SDG). GWAS led to the identification of a common sex chromosome (Chr24) and SDG (amhy) in S. scherzeri, while another sex chromosome (Chr11) was identified in Coreoperca whiteheadi. Interestingly, completely conserved protein coding sequences of amhy were commonly identified in male S. chuatsi, S. scherzeri, and S. knerii. These results support a classic model for the origin and evolution of early sex chromosomes and suggest that amhy is a super SDG that can drive the origin and turnover of sex chromosome in vertebrates.
