Nucleotide and octapeptide-repeat variations of the prion protein coding gene (PRNP) in Anatolian, Murrah, and crossbred water buffaloes.

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.
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
Resistance to bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) that is significantly associated with insertion/deletion (indel) polymorphisms at two loci (putative promoter and intron 1) on the prion protein gene (PRNP) in cattle has been well documented. Studies suggest that the insertion alleles are related to BSE resistance. Until recently, BSE has never been reported in water buffaloes (unlike cattle). Previous studies have demonstrated that the PRNP gene in water buffalo consists mostly of insertion alleles at both loci; nevertheless, whether or not water buffaloes are genetically resistant to BSE and the role of indel polymorphisms in their resistance status is not clear. We examined the coding region of PRNP to determine the nucleotide and octapeptide-repeat (octarepeats) variations of Anatolian, Murrah and Murrah × Anatolian (M × A) water buffaloes. Three synonymous single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) at positions 126, 234, and 285, and a non-synonymous SNP at position 322 (G108S) were detected. Triplet G/A/T base substitutions were observed at position 126 and two additional genotypes, T/A and T/G, at this position were determined. We also found six octarepeats that indicated the presence of the wild-type PRNP6 allele in the coding region. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of the T/A and T/G genotypes in water buffaloes.
