Genome-Wide Association Analysis of Growth Traits in Hu Sheep.
Article in Genes, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 20 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
(1) Background: The Hu sheep is a renowned breed characterized by high reproduction, year-round estrus, and resistance to high humidity and temperature conditions. However, the breed exhibits lower growth rates and meat yields, which necessitate improvements through selective breeding. The integration of molecular markers in sheep breeding programs has the potential to enhance growth performance, reduce breeding cycles, and increase meat production. Currently, the applications of SNP chips for genotyping in conjunction with genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have become a prevalent approach for identifying candidate genes associated with economically significant traits in livestock. (2) Methods: To pinpoint candidate genes influencing growth traits in Hu sheep, we recorded the birth weight, weaning weight, and weights at 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7 months for a total of 567 Hu sheep, and genotyping was performed using the Ovine 40K SNP chip. (3) Results: Through GWAS analysis and KEGG pathway enrichment, we identified three candidate genes associated with birth weight (
