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 revolution in large-scale human genomics and advancements in statistical methods have profoundly refined our understanding of genetic diversity and structure within human populations. Y-chromosome variations, with their distinct evolutionary characteristics, play crucial roles in reconstructing the origins and interactions of ancient East Asian paternal lineages. We launched the YanHuang cohort employing a high-resolution capture sequencing panel to explore the evolutionary trajectory of Han Chinese, one of the world's largest ethnic groups. We generated paternal genomic data for 5020 Han Chinese individuals across 29 Chinese administrative regions. We observed that multiple founding paternal lineages originating from ancient western Eurasia, Siberia, and East Asia contributed significantly to the Han Chinese gene pool. We identified fine-scale paternal genetic structures shaped by interactions among ancient populations and geographic barriers like the Qinling-Huaihe line and the Nanling Mountains. These structures reflect both isolation-enhanced and admixture-driven genetic differentiation, underscoring the complexity of Han Chinese genomic diversity. We observed a strong correlation between the frequency of multiple founding lineages and subsistence-related ancestral sources, including western pastoralists, Holocene Mongolian Plateau populations, and ancient East Asians. This relationship highlights the impact of ancient migrations and admixture on Chinese paternal genomic diversity. We introduced the Weakly-Differentiated Multi-Source Admixture model to clarify the intricate interactions among multiple ancestral sources influencing the Han Chinese paternal landscape. This study provides a comprehensive uniparental genomic resource from the YanHuang cohort, proposes a novel admixture model, and delineates the complex genomic landscape shaped by ancient herders, hunter-gatherers, and farmers integral to Han Chinese ancestry.
