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

summaryHybrid zones represent powerful natural systems for studying reproductive isolation and speciation. One key genomic signature of genetic incompatibilities and epistatic interactions is linkage disequilibrium (LD)-non-random associations between loci from different lineage backgrounds, generated by selection against maladaptive allele combinations. However, admixture alone induces strong genome-wide LD in hybrid populations, obscuring selection-driven signals. Here, we present AdmixLD, a fast, scalable C++ tool for genome-wide LD scanning in hybrid zones that estimates LD using partial correlation to control for individual hybrid index. By removing admixture-driven covariance, AdmixLD enhances detection of locus-specific associations and enables genome-scale identification of candidate barrier loci and interacting genomic regions. AVAILABILITY: The software and its code source are available at https://github.com/yzfranci/AdmixLD, and scripts for the data analysis are available at https://github.com/yzfranci/AdmixLDAnalysis.
