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

Transportation is a crucial phase in the beef cattle industry, and the annual losses caused by beef cattle transport stress are substantial. Because of its huge economic losses, such as lower growth rate and even death, long-distance transportation stress has attracted more attention from beef production practitioners because of its huge economic losses. Compared with the long-distance transportation stress, the short-distance transportation stress was ignored for the reason of no obvious symptoms in cattle. Our previous study showed that the disorder of B cell function could be a potential health risk after short-distance transportation. However, the transcriptome details of the changes in the cattle blood after short-distance transportation and the molecular mechanisms for the regulation of the developmental process are not clearly known. In this study, a total of 10 Qinchuan cattle were used to compare the molecular characteristics of blood before and after short-distance transportation. The miRNA-seq showed that 114 differentially expressed miRNAs (DEMs) were found (40 upregulated and 74 downregulated) between two groups before and after transportation. Furthermore, more than 90% of the miRNAs with counts of more than 10 were used to construct a co-expression network by weighted correlation network analysis (WGCNA), and four independent modules were identified. According to their relationship with 30 hub genes, the turquoise module was the key module in this study. The regulator network of hub genes and miRNAs in the turquoise module was constructed by miRNAs targeting genes predicting, and the miRNAs had targeting sites within hub genes that could be identified as hub-miRNAs. Further, it showed that CD40 and ITPKB had the same targeting miRNAs (miR-339a/b), and the newly discovered hub miRNAs filled the gaps in our previous study about the relationship between hub genes in short-distance transportation stress and provided the potential utility for predicting and treatment of short-distance transportation stress in beef cattle.
