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
In the process of pig genetic improvement, different commercial breeds have been bred for the same purpose, improving meat production. Most of the economic traits, such as growth and fertility, have been selected similarly despite the discrepant selection pressure, which is known as parallel selection. Here, 28 whole-genome sequencing data of Danish large white pigs with an approximately 25-fold depth each were generated, resulting in about 12 million high-quality SNPs for each individual. Combined with the sequencing data of 27 Duroc and 23 European wild boars, we investigated the parallel selection of Danish large white and Duroc pigs using two complementary methods, Fst and iHS. In total, 67 candidate regions were identified as the signatures of parallel selection. The genes in candidate regions of parallel selection were mainly associated with sensory perception, growth rate, and body size. Further functional annotation suggested that the striking consistency of the terms may be caused by the polygenetic basis of quantitative traits, and revealing the complex genetic basis of parallel selection. Besides, some unique terms were enriched in population-specific selection regions, such as the limb development-related terms enriched in Duroc-specific selection regions, suggesting unique selections of breed-specific selected traits. These results will help us better understand the parallel selection process of different breeds. Moreover, we identified several potential causal SNPs that may contribute to the pig genetic breeding process.
