Polyphyly and Deep Evolutionary History of Piscine Coccidia: Mitochondrial Genomics of a New Goussia Species From Pacific Saury (Cololabis saira).
Article in The Journal of eukaryotic microbiology. 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
The genus Goussia Labbé 1896 represents a polyphyletic assemblage of piscine coccidia whose systematics remain poorly resolved due to morphological convergence and limited genomic data. Here we describe Goussia sairae n. sp. from the liver of Pacific saury (Cololabis saira) in the Northwestern Pacific, characterized through integrated morphological, histopathological, and molecular analyses. Long-read amplicon sequencing of single-oocyst isolates enabled the first complete mitochondrial genome assembly for a marine Goussia species, revealing two co-existing mitogenome genotypes (99.3% identity) within individual oocysts-the first robust evidence consistent with intra-oocyst mitochondrial heterogeneity in the Eimeriidae. Phylogenetic reconstructions based on nuclear 18S ribosomal RNA and concatenated mitochondrial protein-coding genes robustly supported the polyphyly of Goussia sensu lato, recovering five major lineages. A time-calibrated Bayesian phylogeny dated the marine-freshwater divergence to the Early Jurassic (median 197 million years ago; 95% HPD: 124-275 Mya), congruent with the ancient divergence of their respective teleost host groups. These findings support re-evaluation of the current generic boundaries of Goussia and suggest that the hyper-divergent Epicellular lineage may warrant recognition as a distinct family basal to the Eimeriorina.
