Article in Journal of animal science, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
A study of the mechanism of and metabolic regulation of brown adipose tissue (BAT) production is important for improving the survival rate of young animals. In the present study, we observed that perirenal adipose tissue in goats undergoes a rapid BAT whitening after birth. However, the underlying regulatory mechanism remains unknown. To address this further, we investigated the role of miRNAs in regulating the whitening process of BAT in goats. First, we identified the dynamic expression profiles of miRNAs during the whitening of BAT in Dazu black goat using RNA-seq. We identified a total of 1374 miRNAs, including 408 existing miRNAs, 693 known miRNAs, and 273 novel miRNAs. By analysis of the differentially expressed miRNAs (DE miRNAs), we found that 102 highly expressed miRNAs, including chi-miR-144-3p, chi-miR-144-5p, chi-miR-378-5p, chi-miR-136-3p, chi-miR-381, chi-miR-323b, chi-miR-1197-3p, chi-miR-411b-3p, and chi-miR-487a-3p, were enriched in BAT. In addition, 60 highly expressed miRNAs, including chi-miR-184, chi-miR-193a, chi-miR-193b-3p, chi-let-7c-5p, and chi-let-7e-5p, were enriched in white fat-like tissue. An analysis of miRNAs that were linearly downregulated (profile 0) or linearly upregulated (profile 19) over the D0-D28 period found that these DE miRNAs were mainly enriched in the Hippo signaling pathway, Cytokine-cytokine receptor interactions, and the TGF-beta signaling pathway. Furthermore, we confirmed that chi-let-7e-5p promotes the proliferation and differentiation of brown adipocytes. These results should facilitate a better understanding of the molecular regulation of miRNAs involved in BAT whitening in goats.
