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

Studying when and where gross genomic rearrangements occurred during evolution is key to understanding changes in genome structure with functional consequences that might eventually lead to speciation. Here we identified chromosome rearrangements in ruminants, a clade characterized by large chromosome differences. Using 26 genome assemblies, we reconstructed five ancestral karyotypes and classified the rearrangement events occurring in each lineage. With these reconstructions, we then identified evolutionary breakpoints regions (EBRs) and synteny fragments. Ruminant karyotype evolution is characterized by inversions, while interchromosomal rearrangements occurred preferentially in the oldest ancestor of ruminants. We found that EBRs are depleted of protein coding genes, including housekeeping genes. Similarly, EBRs are not enriched in high GC regions, suggesting that meiotic double strand breaks might not be their origin. Overall, our results characterize at fine detail the location of chromosome rearrangements in ruminant evolution and provide new insights into the formation of EBRs.
