Optimal design of genetic studies of gene expression with two-color microarrays in outbred crosses.
Article in Genetics, 2008. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Combining global gene-expression profiling and genetic analysis of natural allelic variation (genetical genomics) has great potential in dissecting the genetic pathways underlying complex phenotypes. Efficient use of microarrays is paramount in experimental design as the cost of conducting this type of study is high. For those organisms where recombinant inbred lines are available for mapping, the "distant pair design" maximizes the number of informative contrasts over all marker loci. Here, we describe an extension of this design, named the "optimal pair design," for use with F2 crosses between outbred lines. The performance of this design is investigated by simulation and compared to several other two-color microarray designs. We show that, for a given number of microarrays, the optimal pair design outperforms all other designs considered for detection of expression quantitative trait loci (eQTL) with additive effects by linkage analysis. We also discuss the suitability of this design for outbred crosses in organisms with large genomes and for detection of dominance.
