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

Microsatellite markers are used for any individual identity and breed characterization in animals that is an efficient and successful way of investigation. They are used for multiple purposes as genetic detectors including, rapid mutation rate, high level of polymorphism, and range of variety of microsatellite markers available. A panel of 19 microsatellite markers was developed for breed characterization in Tharparkar and Red Sindhi breeds of cattle in Pakistan. Forty four blood samples of cattle (each breed) were collected from Department of Livestock Management, Sindh Agriculture University, Tandojam, Tando Qaiser, Tharparkar Cattle Farm Nabi sar Road, Umer Kot, Sindh, and Govt. Red Sindhi Cattle Breeding Farm, Tando Muhammad Khan Pakistan. Breed characterization was 100% successful. Average PIC, He and Power of Exclusion values were found to be 0.91, 0.62 and 13.28, respectively. Pattern of allelic frequencies of most of the microsatellite markers were clearly distinct between two breeds. As a result of present study a reliable, efficient and very informative panel of microsatellite markers was successfully developed which was capable to interpret individual identity, forensic cases and breed characterization in cattle. This facility is ready to be provided to local cattle breeder at commercial level for DNA testing of cattle. This study will also be highly helpful for breed conservation of cattle. In addition this study can also become a basis to open up new disciplines of animal forensics in Pakistan.
