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

backgroundGrowth rate is one of the most important features for aquaculture species and deciphering its regulation mechanism has great significance both in genetics and in economics. Hypothalamus-pituitary growth axis (HP growth axis) or neuro-endocrine axis plays a vital role in growth regulation in different aquaculture animals.

resultsIn this study, the HP and liver transcriptomes of two female groups (H and L) with phenotypically extreme growth rate were sequenced using RNA-Seq. A total of 30,524 and 22,341 genes were found expressed in the two tissues, respectively. The average expression levels for the two tissues were almost the same, but the median differed significantly. A differential expression analysis between H and L groups identified 173 and 204 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in HP and liver tissue, respectively. Pathway analysis revealed that DEGs in HP tissue were enriched in regulation of cell proliferation and angiogenesis while in liver tissue these genes were overrepresented in sterol biosynthesis and transportation. Genomic overlapping analyses found that 4 and 5 DEGs were within growth-related QTL in HP and liver tissue respectively. A deeper analysis of these 9 genes revealed 3 genes were functionally linked to the trait of interest. The expression of 2075 lncRNAs in HP tissue and 1490 in liver tissue were also detected, and some of lncRNAs were highly expressed in the two tissues.

conclusionsAbove all, the results of the present study greatly contributed to the knowledge of the regulation of growth and then assisted the design of new selection strategies for bighead carp with improved growth-related traits.
