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

Y-Short Tandem Repeats (Y-STRs) are used in forensic cases to aid in individual identification and strengthen the understanding of peopling in India by assessing genetic differences. The current study aims to report the genetic variations present in the endogamous Brahmin population of Gujarat using 27 Y-STR markers. 421 unrelated male individuals were evaluated to characterize forensically relevant parameters, haplotype diversity, and haplogroup distribution. The genetic diversity, power of discrimination, and haplotype diversity observed were 0.701, 0.699, and 0.711, respectively. The Y- Haplogroup Predictor-NEVGEN was utilised to assess the haplogroup distribution. The R1a haplogroup was observed with the highest frequency (39%), followed by haplogroup L (15%) and haplogroup J (12%). Further, 3,213 Y-STR genotypes across 24 global populations were analysed using pairwise R
