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

The combined application of genome-wide expression profiling from microarray experiments with genetic linkage analysis enables the mapping of expression quantitative trait loci (eQTLs) which are primary control points for gene expression across the genome. This approach allows for the dissection of primary and secondary genetic determinants of gene expression. The cis-acting eQTLs in practice are easier to investigate than the trans-regulated eQTLs because they are under simpler genetic control and are likely to be due to sequence variants within the gene itself or its neighboring regulatory elements. These genes are therefore candidates both for variation in gene expression and for contributions to whole-body phenotypes, particularly when these are located within known and relevant physiologic QTLs. Multiple trans-acting eQTLs tend to cluster to the same genetic location, implying shared regulatory control mechanisms that may be amenable to network analysis to identify gene clusters within the same metabolic pathway. Such clusters may ultimately underlie development of individual complex, whole-body phenotypes. The combined expression and linkage approach has been applied successfully in several mammalian species, including the rat which has specific features that demonstrate its value as a model for studying complex traits.
