Recent insights into the evolution of mutation rates in yeast.
Review in Current opinion in genetics & development, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers.
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
Mutation is the origin of all genetic variation, good and bad. The mutation process can evolve in response to mutations, positive or negative selection, and genetic drift, but how these forces contribute to mutation-rate variation is an unsolved problem at the heart of genetics research. Mutations can be challenging to measure, but genome sequencing and other tools have allowed for the collection of larger and more detailed datasets, particularly in the yeast-model system. We review key hypotheses for the evolution of mutation rates and describe recent advances in understanding variation in mutational properties within and among yeast species. The multidimensional spectrum of mutations is increasingly recognized as holding valuable clues about how this important process evolves.
