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
The research article was carried out with the objective of studying the genetic variation on the resilience of buffaloes to negative energy balance-NEB (measured by changes in body weight in early lactation)-as well as investigating genomic regions of interest for this trait. A model of reaction norms was used, considering milk production as the trait to be analyzed and solutions of the contemporary groups to weight changes as environmental gradient. In this methodology, the genetic value of the slope represents the measure of resilience of the animals. After the estimation step, a genome-wide association analysis was performed for the slope of the reaction norms model, to obtain a list of windows and associated genes. The heritability estimates for milk production over the resilience gradient ranged from 0.13 to 0.28, with lower values in the intermediate environmental groups. Regarding the productive resilience of dairy buffalo cows to NEB, the genomic windows with the highest contribution to the genetic variance were detected on chromosomes BBU 1, 2, 3, 4, 9, 12, 19, and 21. A functional analysis of the genes described in the selected windows indicated association with metabolic routes related to growth and immunity of the animals, with an emphasis on the STAT6 gene. The results presented indicate that there is for this trait genetic variation to be used as selection criteria, in addition to genomic regions that can increase the precision of the selection.
