Development of economic selection indexes for beef-on-dairy systems and implication for sire re-ranking in U.S. production systems.

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
The rapid expansion of beef-on-dairy (B×D) crossbreeding in the United States has increased the need for selection tools tailored to this unique production system. The objectives of this study were to develop economic selection indexes specific to B×D systems under U.S. conditions and to evaluate the extent of sire re-ranking relative to conventional beef-on-beef (B×B) indexes. The current study utilized iGENDEC, a web-based decision support platform hosted by the Beef Improvement Federation. iGENDEC enables users to enter enterprise-specific information related to breeding goals, breeding systems, economic costs/returns, and current phenotypic performance. Using stochastic simulation, iGENDEC creates a simulated population informed by the user's parameters to enable calculation of the marginal economic value of each trait in the specified breeding objective. Using iGENDEC, economic selection indexes were constructed for multiple crossbreeding scenarios incorporating traits related to carcass merit, feed intake, and calving performance. Beef bulls (
