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

Complex traits with multiple phenotypic values changing over time are called longitudinal traits. In traditional genome-wide association studies (GWAS) for longitudinal traits, a combined/averaged estimated breeding value (EBV) or deregressed proof (DRP) instead of multiple phenotypic measurements per se for each individual was frequently treated as response variable in statistical model. This can result in power losses or even inflate false positive rates (FPRs) in the detection due to failure of exploring time-dependent relationship among measurements. Aiming at overcoming such limitation, we developed two random regression-based models for functional GWAS on longitudinal traits, which could directly use original time-dependent records as response variable and fit the time-varied Quantitative Trait Nucleotide (QTN) effect. Simulation studies showed that our methods could control the FPRs and increase statistical powers in detecting QTN in comparison with traditional methods where EBVs, DRPs or estimated residuals were considered as response variables. Besides, our proposed models also achieved reliable powers in gene detection when implementing into two real datasets, a Chinese Holstein Cattle data and the Genetic Analysis Workshop 18 data. Our study herein offers an optimal way to enhance the power of gene detection and further understand genetic control of developmental processes for complex longitudinal traits.
