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

In genomic selection (GS), all the markers across the entire genome are used to conduct marker-assisted selection such that each quantitative trait locus of complex trait is in linkage disequilibrium with at least one marker. Although GS improves estimated breeding values and genetic gain, in most GS models genetic variance is estimated from training samples with many trait-irrelevant markers, which leads to severe overfitting in the calculation of trait heritability. In this study, we demonstrated overfitting heritability due to the inclusion of trait-irrelevant markers using a series of simulations, and such overfitting can be effectively controlled by cross validation experiment. In the proposed method, the genetic variance is simply the variance of the genetic values predicted through cross validation, the residual variance is the variance of the differences between the observed phenotypic values and the predicted genetic values, and these two resultant variance components are used for calculating the unbiased heritability. We also demonstrated that the heritability calculated through cross validation is equivalent to trait predictability, which objectively reflects the applicability of the GS models. The proposed method can be implemented with the Mixed Procedure in SAS or with our R package "GSMX" which is publically available at https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/GSMX/index.html .
