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

Lymphocyte-specific protein tyrosine kinase (LCK) is an important reproduction related gene. In this study, the full-length cDNA sequence of porcine LCK gene was cloned through the rapid amplification of cDNA ends (RACE) method. The porcine LCK gene encodes a protein of 509 amino acids which shares high homology with the LCK of nine species: giant panda (97%), dog (97%), cattle (96%), sheep (95%), rabbit (95%), human (96%), rat (94%), mouse (94%) and horse (94%). This novel porcine gene was assigned to GeneID: 100233188. The phylogenetic analysis revealed that the porcine LCK gene has a closer genetic relationship with the LCK gene of dog. This gene is structured in twelve exons and eleven introns as revealed by computer-assisted analysis. The tissue transcription profile analysis indicated that the porcine LCK gene is generally but differentially expressed in the detected tissues including large intestine, spleen, lung, muscle, fat, liver, heart, kidney and ovary. PCR-Alu I-RFLP was established to detect an A/G substitution at the position of 1127-bp of mRNA and eight pig breeds displayed obvious genotype and allele frequency differences at this mutation locus. Association of this single-nucleotide polymorphism with litter size traits was assessed in Large White (n = 100) and Landrace (n = 100) pig populations, and results demonstrated that this polymorphic locus was significantly associated with the litter size of all parities in Large White sows and Landrace sows (P < 0.01). Therefore, LCK gene could be an useful candidate gene in selection for increasing litter size in pigs. These data serve as a foundation for further insight into this novel porcine gene.
