Identification of the Complete Mitochondrial Genome of the Malayan Pangolin (
Article in Genes, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundPangolins are critically endangered mammals, and a comprehensive understanding of their genetic diversity is crucial for effective conservation. The mitochondrial genome serves as a vital molecular marker for phylogenetic and population genetic studies. Obtaining genetic material from these elusive animals non-invasively remains a challenge. This study aimed to sequence and characterize the complete mitochondrial genome of
methodsThe complete mitochondrial genome was sequenced from a saliva-derived sample. Standard procedures for DNA extraction, amplification, and sequencing were employed. The genome was assembled and annotated using bioinformatic tools. Phylogenetic analysis was conducted based on the cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COXI) gene sequences from nine pangolin species, with the resulting tree constructed using the maximum-likelihood method.
resultsThe complete mitochondrial genome of
conclusionsThis study successfully demonstrates the feasibility of extracting and sequencing the complete mitochondrial genome from saliva samples, providing a valuable non-invasive method for future genetic studies on pangolins. The genomic data and phylogenetic results offer significant molecular insights that will benefit the genetic management and conservation of critically endangered pangolin resources.
