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

Investigation of the impact of ecological and landscape processes on genetic population structuring and differentiation is critical for understanding adaptation to different environments. Several hypotheses, including isolation by distance (IBD), isolation by environment (IBE) and isolation by resistance (IBR), have been proposed to explain the spatial patterns of genetic diversity and differentiation among populations. However, these hypotheses have rarely been tested together, and the relative importance of these processes is still unclear. Here, we employed genome-wide SNP data to investigate the genetic structure of 32 Rana kukunoris populations from the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau and explored the patterns and extent of genetic divergence among these populations in relation to the three aforementioned isolation patterns. The results indicated that the species was genetically highly structured (F
