The concepts of "domestication" and "artificial selection" and their significance in the work of Charles Darwin.

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
This analysis examines the terms "domestication" and "selection" presented in Darwin's The variation of animals and plants under domestication, and the significance he gave to these concepts. This approach focuses on how Darwin drew upon knowledge generated centuries earlier by experts in breeding and cultivation to modify prevailing definitions and use this semantic shift as a primary instrument to defend his theory. The construction of the "analogy" between natural and artificial selection was not merely a heuristic resource, but rather the result of an inductive generalization grounded in irrefutable evidence. Both concepts were reinterpreted based on Darwinian transmutationism, as specific evolutionary scenarios.
