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

Simple sequence repeats (SSRs) are used as polymorphic molecular markers in many species. They contribute very important functional variations in a range of complex traits; however, little is known about the variation of most SSRs in pig populations. Here, using genome resequencing data, we identified ~0.63 million polymorphic SSR loci from more than 100 individuals. Through intensive analysis of this dataset, we found that the SSR motif composition, motif length, total length of alleles and distribution of alleles all contribute to SSR variability. Furthermore, we found that CG-containing SSRs displayed significantly lower polymorphism and higher cross-species conservation. With a rigorous filter procedure, we provided a catalogue of 16,527 high-quality polymorphic SSRs, which displayed reliable results for the analysis of phylogenetic relationships and provided valuable summary statistics for 30 individuals equally selected from eight local Chinese pig breeds, six commercial lean pig breeds and Chinese wild boars. In addition, from the high-quality polymorphic SSR catalogue, we identified four loci with potential loss-of-function alleles. Overall, these analyses provide a valuable catalogue of polymorphic SSRs to the existing pig genetic variation database, and we believe this catalogue could be used for future genome-wide genetic analysis.
