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

Characterising hierarchical population structure is crucial to understanding a species' evolutionary history and informing effective conservation and management strategies. Many terrestrial species in North America have experienced a wide range of evolutionary pressures at multiple scales, ranging from large-scale range shifts and recolonisations driven by glacial cycles to more localized contemporary habitat degradation and fragmentation. Hence in this region, given the multi-level evolutionary forces at play, genetic variation and diversity are often hierarchically structured. We analysed genomic diversity and variation in woodland caribou (
