Genomic characterisation of endangered Landim pigs reveals distinctive features and immune-related selection.
Article in Frontiers in veterinary science, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Introduction: The Landim pigs of Mozambique are an important local breed, reared by smallscale farmers in extensive systems, predominantly sustained on leftover food. These pigs serve as a cornerstone of the economic stability of these communities. However, their existence is currently threatened by uncontrolled crossbreeding with commercial pig breeds. Preserving these local pigs is also crucial, given their role as a source of genetic diversity. Methods: Whole-genome resequencing of samples derived from six Landim pigs,was conducted, to characterise their genetic makeup and establishing their relationship with pig breeds worldwide. Results: Our findings suggest that Landim pigs are more closely related to Angolan pigs, although recent introgression from European cosmopolitan breeds has occurred. Discussion: Results show that Landim pigs display a unique genetic signature, with positive selection detected in variants of genes acting within the neuroimmune axis, which is fundamental for survival and immune response.
