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

BACKGROUND/

objectivesIn Brazil,

methodsTo explore the demographic history of these communities and the reach of the Transatlantic Slave Trade in Southern Brazil, we analyzed Y and mitochondrial DNA haplotypes in samples from two

resultsOur findings reveal a significant African maternal ancestry in both communities, with Feixo exhibiting 35% and Restinga showing a striking 78.72% of maternal haplogroups of African origin. Feixo's mtDNA haplotypes display affinities with Bantu-speaking populations from Central-Western and Southeastern Africa (such as Angola, Congo, and Mozambique), whereas those found in Restinga are more closely aligned with lineages frequent in Western Africa. Y-chromosome data reveal 39.4% and 25% African paternal ancestry in Feixo and Restinga, respectively, with most African chromosomes assigned to haplogroup E1b1b1-M35, which has a broad frequency across eastern Africa.

conclusionsThese results offer novel insights into the history of the African diaspora in a previously unstudied Brazilian region, suggesting African sources-including underdocumented Eastern/Southern lineages-and contributing useful new clues to their broader within-Africa affinities.
