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
This study investigated genetic diversity, phylogenetic relationships, and evolutionary history of domestic goats from Türkiye and Iraq, along with wild goat and chamois species, using newly obtained mitogenomic sequences. Phylogenetic and phylogeographic analyses revealed a complex genetic structure among domestic goats, shaped by widespread distribution and gene flow. While haplotype A was predominant among domesticated breeds from both Türkiye and Iraq, haplotype G was also detected in the Turkish breeds. Notably, Turkish samples exhibited relatively higher nucleotide diversity (0.00133) compared to those from Iraq (0.00081), indicating greater genetic variability in the former population. Wild goat populations in Türkiye were clustered into two distinct lineages: (i) the Aegagrus lineage included the Artvin sample, some ancient genomes from the Taurus Mountains, and Iranian goats, and (ii) the Caucasian lineage contained Konya and Antalya samples, and some ancient genomes from the Taurus Mountains that were clustered closely with wild goats from the Caucasus. These findings suggest that geographic and ecological factors, such as the Anatolian Diagonal, influenced their diversification. Divergence time analyses indicated that the Caprinae began diversifying approximately 8.18 Mya, with initial splits in the
