Synthetic Chromosomes in Yeast: A Platform for Understanding and Programming Eukaryotic Life.
Review in Microbial biotechnology, 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
A central goal of biology is to understand how genome sequence, content and organization give rise to living systems with specific traits. Achieving this goal requires understanding which genes are collectively required for life and for particular traits, how their products work together and how the organization of these genes in the genome affects cellular function. At a broader scale, it also means determining the mechanisms that generate inherited phenotypic diversity and enable adaptation and speciation. Synthetic chromosome assembly in the budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae provides a tractable platform for probing these relationships in a model eukaryote by allowing chromosomes to be designed, built and tested directly in living cells. By making chromosome-scale genome architecture an experimental variable, chromosome synthesis differs from approaches that describe organisms as they occur in nature or test the effects of one or a few genes at a time. This review traces the emergence of yeast synthetic chromosomes as tools for genome biology and identifies advances needed to make chromosome-scale design more predictive.
