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 insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF1) gene was studied as a candidate gene for high prolificacy in sheep. Polymorphisms of 5' regulatory region and all four exons of IGF1 gene were detected in Small Tail Han (n = 277), Hu (n = 58), Texel (n = 48) and Dorset (n = 46) sheep by PCR-RFLP and PCR-SSCP analysis. A microsatellite polymorphic site and a restriction fragment length polymorphism were shown in the 5' regulatory region of IGF1 gene. The ewes with genotype 123/123 bp had 0.81 (P < 0.05) or 1.03 (P < 0.01) lambs more than those with genotype 125/125 bp or 125/127 bp, the ewes with genotype 123/125 bp had 0.46 (P < 0.05) or 0.68 (P < 0.01) lambs more than those with genotype 125/125 bp or 125/127 bp. In addition, there were two mutations (C1511G and A1513G) in 5' regulatory region of IGF1 gene. The ewes with genotype BB or AB had 0.96 (P < 0.05) or 0.38 (P < 0.05) lambs more than those with genotype AA, but there were no significant differences between BB and AB genotypes (P > 0.05) in Small Tail Han sheep. These results preliminarily indicated that these polymorphisms of IGF1 gene could be used in molecular marker-assisted selection for sheep breeding programs.
