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

The differences in artificial and natural selection have been some of the factors contributing to phenotypic diversity between Chinese and western pigs. Here, 830 individuals from western and Chinese pig breeds were genotyped using the reduced-representation genotyping method. First, we identified the selection signatures for different pig breeds. By comparing Chinese pigs and western pigs along the first principal component, the growth gene IGF1R; the immune genes IL1R1, IL1RL1, DUSP10, RAC3 and SWAP70; the meat quality-related gene SNORA50 and the olfactory gene OR1F1 were identified as candidate differentiated targets. Further, along a principal component separating Pudong White pigs from others, a potential causal gene for coat colour (EDNRB) was discovered. In addition, the divergent signatures evaluated by F
