A compendium of horizontal gene transfers in Metazoa.
Article in Scientific data, 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
With more eukaryotic genomes available for study researchers have been able to identify a growing number of horizontal gene transfer (HGT) candidates. We compiled 9,495 protein coding genes that were identified as horizontally transferred to metazoan hosts in the published literature. This dataset contains gene transfers from bacteria, fungi, archaea and protists to metazoans. We assigned a confidence score to each gene based on the methods used in the scientific paper reporting HGT. All the coding sequences and protein sequences for the HGT genes are stored in a fig share repository. This dataset can be used to identify trends in genome and protein evolution and provide a foundation for creating a centralized HGT database for eukaryotes.
