RandoMate: a program for the generation of random mating schemes for small laboratory animals.
Article in Mammalian genome : official journal of the International Mammalian Genome Society, 2009. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Advanced intercross lines (AIL) have proven to be a powerful tool in genetic research to map complex genetic traits. The advantage of AIL is the high enrichment of visible recombination events to fine map the position of the target gene. Therefore, AIL are generated under the avoidance of inbreeding. We developed an online software tool, RandoMate, that generates random mating schemes such that only animals from different families are paired. When animals have to be selected randomly for mating, RandoMate optimizes the mating scheme such that all families contribute equally to the next generation. RandoMate uses a divide-and-conquer algorithm to define a mating scheme without brother-sister matings for all animals of a generation. If not all animals can be considered for the next generation, the mating scheme maximizes the randomness of the occurrences of animals from their families to make the family contributions as equal as possible.
