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

Introduction: Canine atopic dermatitis (CAD) is a common inflammatory skin condition in dogs. It is a lifelong issue that poses a significant welfare concern due to the chronic skin discomfort and pruritus (itching) experienced by affected animals. Excessive scratching, licking, and chewing cause self-inflicted injuries to the skin and increase the risk of secondary infections. Several dog breeds, including Labrador Retriever, Boxer, and French Bulldog, are known to be predisposed to these issues, suggesting a genetic link to the condition. Methods: Access to a large population of dogs genotyped on a medium-density single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) array through commercial Wisdom Panel testing, along with their linked clinical records, allowed a large-scale, highly powered genome-wide association study (GWAS) to be performed. In this study, over 28,000 dogs were examined to identify genetic changes associated with CAD. Results: A statistically significant signal on canine chromosome 38 was identified, with a particularly strong signal in French Bulldogs. Whole-genome resequencing revealed a compelling splice donor variant in the signaling lymphocytic activation molecule 1 ( Discussion: The discovery represents the first compelling genetic variant associated with CAD to be validated in more than one breed of dog. The study identifies
