Polymorphisms in major histocompatibility complex genes and its associations with milk quality in Murrah buffaloes.
Article in Tropical animal health and production, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Animal breeding programs have used molecular genetic tools as an auxiliary method to identify and select animals with superior genetic merit for milk production and milk quality traits as well as disease resistance. Genes of the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) are important molecular markers for disease resistance that could be applied for genetic selection. The aim of this study was to identify single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and haplotypes in DRB2, DRB3, DMA, and DMB genes in Murrah breed and to analyze the association between molecular markers and milk, fat, protein and mozzarella production, fat and protein percentage, and somatic cell count. Two hundred DNA samples from Murrah buffaloes were used. The target regions of candidate genes were amplified by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) followed by sequencing and identification of polymorphisms. Allele and genotype frequencies, as well as linkage disequilibrium between SNPs, were calculated. Genotypes were used in association analyses with milk production and quality traits. Except for the DMA gene, identified as monomorphic, the other genes presented several polymorphisms. The DMB, DRB2, and DRB3 genes presented two, six, and seven SNPs, respectively. Fifty-seven haplotype blocks were constructed from 15 SNPs identified, which was used in association analyses. All the studied traits had at least one associated haplotype. In conclusion, it is suggested that the haplotypes found herein can be associated with important traits related to milk production and quality.
