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

backgroundThe genetic correlation between purebred and crossbred performance ([Formula: see text]) is an important parameter in pig and poultry breeding, because response to selection in crossbred performance depends on the value of [Formula: see text] when selection is based on purebred (PB) performance. The value of [Formula: see text] can be substantially lower than 1, which is partly due to differences in allele frequencies between parental lines when non-additive genetic effects are present. This relationship between [Formula: see text] and parental allele frequencies suggests that [Formula: see text] can be expressed as a function of genetic parameters for the trait in the parental lines. In this study, we derived expressions for [Formula: see text] based on genetic variances within, and the genetic covariance between parental lines. It is important to note that the variance components used in our expressions are not the components that are typically estimated in empirical data. The expressions were derived for a genetic model with additive and dominance effects (D), and additive and epistatic additive-by-additive effects (E

resultsOur simulations show that when non-additive effects are present, [Formula: see text] decreases with increasing differences in allele frequencies between the parental lines. Genetic models that involve dominance result in lower values of [Formula: see text] than genetic models that involve epistasis only. Using information of parental lines only, our expressions provide exact estimates of [Formula: see text] for models D and E

conclusionThis work lays the foundation to enable estimation of [Formula: see text] from information collected in PB parental lines only.
