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

Environmental temperature significantly influences the evolutionary adaptation of poultry, while abdominal fat deposition represents a crucial economic trait affecting feed conversion efficiency and carcass quality. However, reports on the genetic mechanisms governing their co-evolutionary trade-offs remain scarce. This study employed whole-genome resequencing data from 469 chickens across 31 varieties. Through comparative analyses of heat- versus cold-adapted groups and high- versus low-fat groups, structural variations (SVs) were utilized as genetic markers. Selection signatures were identified via the population differentiation index (
