Addressing missing context in regulatory variation across primate evolution.
Review in Current opinion in genetics & development, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
In primates, loci associated with adaptive trait variation often fall in noncoding regions. Understanding the mechanisms linking these regulatory variants to fitness-relevant phenotypes remains challenging but can be addressed using functional genomic data. However, such data are rarely generated at scale in nonhuman primates. When they are, only select tissues, cell types, developmental stages, and cellular environments are typically considered, despite growing appreciation that adaptive variants often exhibit context-dependent effects. In this review, we (1) discuss why context-dependent regulatory loci might be especially relevant for understanding adaptive evolution in primates, (2) explore challenges and emerging solutions for mapping such context-dependent variation, and (3) discuss the scientific questions these data could address. Filling these gaps will provide critical insights into evolutionary processes, human disease, and regulatory adaptation.
