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

The myostatin (MSTN) gene, known as growth differentiation factor-8 (GDF-8), is a member of the transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) superfamily and plays a specific inhibitory role during the critical phases of skeletal muscle mass development in vertebrates. This study was conducted to investigate MSTN polymorphisms in harvest size European sea bass reared in Turkey. Nine single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and two indels were identified in exons 1-3 of MSTN in the European sea bass population The associations between the g.16612A indel located in intron 1 and standard length were significant. The MSTN g.15252 T > A locus in intron 2 was significantly related to the total weight, fillet weight and standard length (P < 0.05). The relationship between the g.14873C > T locus in exon 3 of MSTN and standard height, head length, body length, pre-anal length, abdominal length, post-anal length and head width was significant (P < 0.05). According to the results of the haplotype analysis, two haplogroup and eight haplotype combinations were detected in the population. The haplogroup 2 had significant associations with all measured growth traits (P < 0.05). Thus, SNPs and haplotypes identified in this study could be useful for European sea bass breeding and marker-assisted selection.
