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

The evolutionary dynamics of immune adaptors in wildlife remain poorly understood, despite their critical role in host-pathogen interactions. In this study, we investigated the molecular evolution of five TIR domain-containing adaptors (MAL, MyD88, SARM, TRAM, and TRIF) in murid rodents across both interspecific and population levels to provide an integrative view of their evolutionary trajectories. Our analyses demonstrate that these adaptors are predominantly under purifying selection in murids, yet contain specific positively selected sites in MAL and MyD88, indicating localized adaptive fine-tuning. These positively selected amino acid sites exhibited substantial genetic divergence among murid species. Within populations, we observed reduced genetic diversity in the adaptor genes compared with noncoding regions across the whole genome in both
