Genomic Scan for Selection Signature Reveals Fat Deposition in Chinese Indigenous Sheep with Extreme Tail Types.
Article in Animals : an open access journal from MDPI, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 40 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
It is a unique feature that fat can be deposited in sheep tails and rumps. To elucidate the genetic mechanism underlying this trait, we collected 120 individuals from three Chinese indigenous sheep breeds with extreme tail types, namely large fat-tailed sheep (
