Evolution of the Jawed Vertebrate (Gnathostomata) Stomach Through Gene Repertoire Loss: Findings from Agastric Species.
Article in Journal of developmental biology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
The stomach has been a highly conserved organ throughout vertebrate evolution; however, there are now over 20 lineages composed of monotremes, lungfish and teleost fish displaying a secondary loss of stomach function and morphology. This "agastric phenotype" has evolved convergently and is typified by a loss of gastric glands and gastric acid secretion and a near-to-complete loss of storage capacity of the stomach. All agastric species have lost the genes for gastric enzymes (
