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
Chromosomal abnormalities involving the sex chromosomes constitute critical genetic factors influencing fertility in horses. Nevertheless, a substantial proportion of individuals carrying sex chromosomal abnormalities exhibit normal reproductive phenotypes, which complicates their identification until adulthood. Here, we present four mares carrying a complex deletion/translocation rearrangement with the karyotype formula 64, X, del(X)(p∼25), t(X; Y)(p∼25; q∼15). The cases analyzed belong to three unrelated families of Pura Raza Española (PRE), all presenting the same chromosomal abnormality. Two of the individuals analyzed were a fertile mare and her foal, demonstrating vertical transmission of the rearrangement to the next generation. The animals were initially flagged for sex chromosome abnormalities due to incompatibilities between phenotypic and genotypic sex detected during STR analysis for parentage. They were subsequently analyzed for copy number abnormalities and sex chromosome assessment using an equine commercial SNP-array-based methodology, detecting a large heterozygous 10 Mb deletion located at the distal part of the ChrX p-arm, as well as the existence of a genomic region associated with ChrY. Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) further confirmed that ChrY-derived material was translocated to the same distal part of the ChrX p-arm. Finally, bioinformatic tools were used to evaluate the abundance of CpG islands and to perform a functional analysis of the genes located in the affected regions. These results may suggest that reproductive competence in the fertile mare could be explained by the production of euploid zygotes carrying at least one copy of the intact X chromosome. This study highlights the importance of accurate detection and characterization of chromosomal abnormalities in horses, particularly in individuals with apparently normal reproductive phenotypes.
