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 ratio trait is defined as a ratio of two regular quantitative traits with normal distribution, which is distinguished from regular quantitative traits in the genetic analysis because it does not follow the normal distribution. On the basis of maximum likelihood method that uses a special linear combination of the two component traits, we develop a Bayesian mapping strategy for ratio traits, which firstly analyzes the two component traits by Bayesian shrinkage method, and then generates a new posterior sample of genetic effects for a ratio trait from ones of population means and genetic effects for the two component traits, finally, infers QTL for the ratio trait via post MCMC analysis for the new posterior sample. A simulation study demonstrates that the new method has higher detecting power of the QTL than maximum likelihood method. An application is illustrated to map genome-wide QTL for relative growth rate of height on soybean.
