Revisiting Aurochs Haplogroup C: Paleogenomic Perspectives from Northeastern China.
Article in Genes, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
BACKGROUND/
objectivesAurochs (
methodsIn this study, we obtained 13 nearly complete mitochondrial genomes from Late Pleistocene to early Holocene bovine samples from Northeastern China through fossil sample collection, ancient DNA extraction, library construction, and high-throughput sequencing. Based on the acquired ancient DNA data and in combination with previously published bovine data, the phylogenetic status, lineage divergence time, and population dynamics of aurochs in Northeastern China were analyzed.
resultsPhylogenetic analyses and divergence time estimations suggest that the current definition of haplogroup C is overly inclusive, necessitating a refined reclassification of this haplogroup. We also estimated the population dynamics of aurochs in Northeastern China using Bayesian skyline plots found that the maternal effective population size of the aurochs increased significantly during Marine Isotope Stage 5 (MIS5), but began to decrease in the second half of MIS3 before they eventually became extinct.
conclusionsOur results provide new molecular evidence on the phylogenetic status, divergence time, and population dynamics of aurochs in Northeastern China.
