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

objectiveIdentification of large scale structural polymorphisms (copy number variations [CNVs]) of more than 50 bp between the individuals of a species would help in knowing genetic diversity, phenotypic variability, adaptability to tropical environment and disease resistance.

methodsRead depth-based method implemented in CNVnator was used for calling copy number variant regions on sequenced data obtained from whole-genome sequencing from 15 pooled samples belonging to five draught cattle breeds of Tamil Nadu.

resultsA total of 11,605 CNV regions (CNVRs) were observed covering a genome size of 18.63 percent. Among these, 11,459 were restricted to autosomes, consisting of 11,013 deletions, 353 duplications and 93 complex events. These CNVRs were annotated to 4,989 candidate genes. A total of 8,291 numbers of CNVRs were shared among the five cattle breeds as also supported by principal component analysis and STRUCTURE analyses and 1,172 CNVRs were breed-specific. Four out of five selected breed-specific CNVRs were validated using real-time polymerase chain reaction. Genes with CNVRs are related to milk production (BTN1A1, ABCA1, and LAP3), disease resistance (TLR4 and DNAH8), adaptability (SOD1, CAST, and SMARCAL1), growth (EGFR, NKAIN3), reproduction (BRWD1 and PDE6D), meat and carcass traits (MAP3K5 and NCAM1) and exterior (ATRN and MITF) traits. Gene enrichment analysis based on the gene list retrieved from the CNVRs disclosed over-represented terms (p<0.01) associated with milk fat production. NETWORK analysis had identified 13 putative candidate genes involved in milk fat percentage, milk fat yield, lactation persistency, milk yield, heat tolerance, calving ease, growth and conformation traits.

conclusionThe genome-wide CNVRs identified in the present study produced genomewide partial CNV map in indigenous cattle breeds of Tamil Nadu.
