Quantitative trait loci for peripheral blood cell counts: a study in baboons.
Article in Mammalian genome : official journal of the International Mammalian Genome Society, 2007. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Increasingly, baseline peripheral blood cell counts are implicated as risk factors for common complex diseases. While genetic influences on these hematologic parameters are firmly established, the genetic architecture of the blood counts is still poorly understood. In this article we used data from 582 healthy pedigreed baboons and variance components methods to localize quantitative trait loci (QTLs) influencing complete blood count variables. Besides performing genome-wide linkage scans for each trait individually, we conducted bivariate linkage analyses for all pairwise trait combinations to also identify pleiotropic QTLs influencing several blood counts. While significant and suggestive QTLs were localized throughout the genome (LOD range: 1.5-3.5), chromosomal regions associated with the expression of various hematologic parameters stand out. In particular, our results provide significant and consistent evidence for a QTL on the orthologous human chromosome 1p that is shared by several blood counts, mainly erythrocyte parameters. In addition, multiple suggestive evidence of linkage was detected on the orthologous human chromosomes 10 (near the q-terminus) and 19 (centromeric section). Future studies should help identify the genes responsible for these QTL and elucidate their role on baseline variation in hematologic indicators of health and disease.
