Nuclear mitochondrial sequences in great ape telomere-to-telomere genomes.
Article in Genome research, 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
Mitochondrial sequences have integrated into the nuclear genome since the origin of eukaryotes. Recent insertions that retain homology with extant mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA), termed NUMTs, confound mtDNA sequence analysis. Here, we use great ape telomere-to-telomere (T2T) genomes to study NUMTs in bonobo, chimpanzee, human, gorilla, and Bornean and Sumatran orangutans. A phylogeny based on shared and lineage-specific NUMTs accurately recapitulates the great ape species tree topology. NUMTs are enriched at nonfunctional nonrepetitive regions of the nuclear genome and depleted within enhancers and coding sequences, suggesting negative selection. We validate the presence of a 76-kb-long heterozygous NUMT in chimpanzee, which is larger than any other NUMT observed in great apes, and find that dozens of NUMTs on the
