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

A disintegrin-like and metalloprotease domain with thrombospondin type I motifs-like 3 (ADAMTSL3) is an important candidate gene for body measurement traits through marker-assisted selection (MAS). The objective of this study was to analyze SNP of bovine ADAMTSL3 gene and its specific expression in tissues to explore its possible correlation with body measurement traits in Bos taurus. Our genomic structural analysis showed that bovine ADAMTSL3 shares much similarity with human ADAMTSL3. Gene expression analysis indicated that the order of specific tissue expression patterns of bovine ADAMTSL3 was the testis, heart, fat, stomach, small intestine, liver, lung, trachea, kidney, spleen, large intestine and muscle. Allele frequencies demonstrated significant variance in different local cattle breeds. Also, the T1532C SNP in exon 13 and C1899T SNP in exon 15 were significantly correlated with Body Length (BL), Chest Depth (CD), Heart Girth (HG) and Pin Bone Width (PBW). Furthermore, C1899T SNP marker had significant correlation with the PBW (P = 0. 0235) based on 867 individual analysis. In the total population, combination of T1532C and C1899T SNPs significantly affected on the BL (P = 0.0028), CD (P < 0.0001), HG (P = 0.0002) and PBW (P = 0.0049). These results suggest that the ADAMTSL3 gene, as one of target genes for body measurement traits in cattle breeds, could be used as a genetic marker to select excellent body type of cattle population in the animal breeding program.
