Association between polymorphisms in cathepsin and cystatin genes with meat production and carcass traits in Italian Duroc pigs: confirmation of the effects of a cathepsin L (CTSL) gene marker.
Article in Molecular biology reports, 2012. 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
We genotyped single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in 5 cathepsin or cystatin genes (cathepsin F, CTSF; cathepsin L, CTSL; cathepsin S, CTSS; cathepsin Z, CTSZ; cystatin B, CSTB) in two groups of Italian Duroc pigs: the first group (n. 100) was chosen using a selective genotyping approach with extreme estimated breeding value (EBV) for visible intermuscular fat (VIF); the second group (n. 218) was made of performance-tested Duroc pigs not selected by any criteria. CTSL marker showed a tendency towards association (P<0.10) with VIF (first group) and back fat thickness (BFT) and average daily gain (ADG; second group). In the second group, the CTSL polymorphism was associated with weight of lean cuts (LC; P<0.05). Additive effects for all mentioned traits in the second group was significant (P<0.05). The results we obtained in the Italian Duroc pigs confirmed the results and the direction of the effects already reported for the Italian Large White breed.
