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

Orthonectids are a group of highly simplified worm-like parasites that are placed within Lophotrochozoa by multigene mitochondrial and nuclear phylogenies. However, their exact position within Lophotrochozoa is uncertain due to the high rate of molecular evolution and putative long branch attraction artifacts. To examine the phylogenetic placement of orthonectids, we applied an alternative approach that takes into account rare evolutionary events (gene order rearrangements in mitochondrial DNA and individual changes in mitochondrial proteins) with an assessment of their probabilities based on a reference sequence database (RefSeq, NCBI). This approach strongly supports the branching of orthonectids among annelids, but does not conclusively resolve their position among the annelid taxa.
