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

We have compared patterns of geographic variation and molecular divergence of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) and Y chromosome over the range of the different subspecies of Mus musculus. MtDNA was typed for 305 nucleotides in the control region, the Y chromosome for 834 base pairs (bp) in Zfy introns and 242 bp in Sry, a Zfy2 18-bp deletion, and two microsatellites. Apparent discrepancies exist between the distributions of the lineages of mtDNA and of the two major Y-chromosome lineages thus defined: some subspecies share the same mtDNA lineage but have different Y-chromosome lineages or vice versa. One microsatellite reveals a geographically clustered variation inside the distribution of each Y-chromosome lineage, showing that new Y-chromosome variants can rapidly spread locally. The two major Y-chromosome lineages have a divergence time only about one fourth of that between mtDNA lineages. Although this recent coalescence of the Y chromosomes between subspecies could partly be due to a lower ancestral polymorphism of the Y chromosome, it suggests that secondary introgression after the radiation of the subspecies might have occurred. There is evidence that the differentiation of the Y-chromosome lineages contributes to partial reproductive isolation between subspecies, and patterns of molecular evolution suggest that selection has played a role in the rapid spread across subspecies.
