Genetic Rescue: Latest Advances and Applications.
Article in Evolutionary applications, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Genetic rescue is the increase in individual or population fitness caused by new genetic variation. It typically involves the deliberate movement of genetically diverse individuals into small and isolated populations to reduce inbreeding and maladaptation while enhancing evolutionary potential. Despite growing interest, gaps in theory and empirical evidence have limited the wider application of genetic rescue in conservation biology. To address these gaps, we put together this Special Issue on Genetic Rescue. The issue assembles 21 original papers that evaluate or apply genetic rescue and related approaches in conservation. The contributions include empirical studies and simulations spanning diverse animal and plant species across varied ecological and socio-environmental contexts, alongside perspectives and syntheses. Collectively, they demonstrate the value of integrating population genomics and evolutionary biology into conservation, identify opportunities and limitations of genetic rescue, and underscore its potential to improve resilience, adaptive capacity, and the long-term persistence of biodiversity.
