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

Historic and contemporary demography affect deleterious variation and inbreeding depression, meaning that measuring genetic diversity alone does not capture the nuances of genetic erosion. Contrasting genomic signatures generated by long-term evolutionary processes to those generated by contemporary changes may help differentiate between populations more or less likely to persist with low diversity or high genetic load. To better understand these interactions, we examined signatures of inbreeding and genetic load across three species of bears: American black (
