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

Chromosomal inversions play a crucial role in evolution by influencing phenotypes through the linkage of coadapted alleles. While inversions have been found across a large number of taxa, mapping and characterizing inversion breakpoint regions remain challenging, often due to the presence of complex tandem repeats and transposable elements. Here, we identify and quantify transposable elements in the breakpoints of the four large-scale inversions previously reported in Atlantic cod, leveraging on three high-quality long-read-based reference genome assemblies for the Norwegian Coastal cod, the Northeast Arctic cod, and Celtic cod ecotypes. We detected a significant enrichment of transposable element orders and superfamilies with terminal inverted repeats within the inversion breakpoint regions of chromosomes 1, 7 and 12. Notably, we discovered a tandem accumulation of miniature inverted-repeat transposable elements belonging to a family of hAT transposons, exclusively residing in the breakpoints of the inverted haplotype on chromosomes 1 and 7 found in the Northeast Arctic cod. The accumulation of tandemly arranged transposable elements with high sequence similarity in breakpoint regions suggests that they have driven the appearance of inversions through ectopic recombination, further supporting the potential of transposable elements in facilitating chromosomal reorganizations with large evolutionary implications.
