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

Kazakh mares have drawn significant attention for their outstanding lactation traits. Lactation, a complex physiological activity, is modulated by multiple factors. This study utilized high-throughput sequencing to conduct whole-transcriptome sequencing analysis on the mammary gland tissue of eight Kazakh mares, of which four were pregnant and four were non-pregnant, to systematically reveal the molecular regulatory mechanisms. The results showed differential expression in 2136 mRNAs, 180 lncRNAs, 104 miRNAs, and 1162 circRNAs. Gene ontology functional annotation indicates that these differentially expressed genes are involved in multiple key biological processes, such as the cellular process (BP), metabolic process, and biological regulation. Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes analysis suggests that the differentially expressed genes are significantly enriched in essential pathways such as cytokine-cytokine receptor interaction, the chemokine signaling pathway, and the PI3K-Akt signaling pathway. Additionally, this study constructed a competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) regulatory network based on the differentially expressed genes (|log
