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
Disease resistance is one of the most important traits for aquaculture industry. For catfish industry, enteric septicemia of catfish (ESC), caused by the bacterial pathogen Edwardsiella ictaluri, is the most severe disease, causing enormous economic losses every year. In this study, we used three channel catfish families with 900 individuals (300 fish per family) and the 690K catfish SNP array, and conducted a genome-wide association study to detect the quantitative trait loci (QTL) associated with ESC resistance. Three significant QTL, with two of located on LG1 and one on LG26, and three suggestive QTL located on LG1, LG3, and LG21, respectively, were identified to be associated with ESC resistance. With a well-assembled- and -annotated reference genome sequence, genes around the involved QTL regions were identified. Among these genes, 37 genes had known functions in immunity, which may be involved in ESC resistance. Notably, nlrc3 and nlrp12 identified here were also found in QTL regions of ESC resistance in the channel catfish × blue catfish interspecific hybrid system, suggesting this QTL was operating within both intra-specific channel catfish populations and interspecific hybrid backcross populations. Many of the genes of the Class I MHC pathway, for mediated antigen processing and presentation, were found in the QTL regions. The positional correlation found in this study and the expressional correlation found in previous studies indicated that Class I MHC pathway was significantly associated with ESC resistance. This study validated one QTL previously identified using the second and fourth generation of the interspecific hybrid backcross progenies, and identified five additional QTL among channel catfish families. Taken together, it appears that there are only a few major QTL for ESC disease resistance, making marker-assisted selection an effective approach for genetic improvements of ESC resistance.
