Genome wide association study of body weight and feed efficiency traits in a commercial broiler chicken population, a re-visitation.
Article in Scientific reports, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 27 papers.
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
Genome wide association study was conducted using a mixed linear model (MLM) approach that accounted for family structure to identify single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and candidate genes associated with body weight (BW) and feed efficiency (FE) traits in a broiler chicken population. The results of the MLM approach were compared with the results of a general linear model approach that does not take family structure in to account. In total, 11 quantitative trait loci (QTL) and 21 SNPs, were identified to be significantly associated with BW traits and 5 QTL and 5 SNPs were found associated with FE traits using MLM approach. Besides some overlaps between the results of the two GWAS approaches, there are considerable differences in the detected QTL. Even though the genomic inflation factor (λ) values indicate that there is no strong family structure in this population, using models that account for the existing family structure may reduce bias and increase accuracy of the estimated SNP effects in the association analysis. The SNPs and candidate genes identified in this study provide information on the genetic background of BW and FE traits in broiler chickens and might be used as prior information for genomic selection.
