Discovery of new chromosomal markers through repeatome analysis of Caryophyllaeus laticeps (Caryophyllidea).
Article in Parasitology research, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Genomic repetitive elements are essential structural and functional components of most eukaryotes and have attracted the attention of researchers in recent years. Despite the well-documented features of the karyotype of the tapeworm species Caryophyllaeus laticeps, knowledge about the content and distribution of repetitive elements on its chromosomes is limited. To gain a more comprehensive understanding of the composition of the repetitive DNA, we used a combination of bioinformatic, cytogenetic and molecular techniques to characterise the repetitive DNA content of this species. RepeatExplorer2 analysis revealed that transposable elements are predominantly present in the C. laticeps genome. The most suitable repeat families were selected for fluorescence mapping on the chromosomes, and most of them showed a scattered hybridisation pattern. In this study, we identified three new chromosomal markers: small nuclear U1 DNA (snDNA), the 5S ribosomal DNA (5S rDNA) and a satellite DNA named ClatSat14-167, each of which hybridises to a single locus at different chromosomal locations, allowing accurate identification of three pairs of chromosomes. These markers could be very valuable tools for future evolutionary studies and greatly enrich the limited cytogenetic data for tapeworms. In addition, an increased frequency of chromosomal aberrations was detected, reaffirming previous findings on the possible adverse effects of environmental pollution on the chromosomes of the species studied.
