Towards a Standard Threshold for Genome Wide Significance in Dogs.
Article in Animal genetics, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) are a foundational step in tying phenotype to genotype, relying on statistical significance thresholds to distinguish true- from false-positive signals of association. Dog genomics has long relied on per-study Bonferroni thresholds of significance, basing these on SNP chip levels of markers (~100 k to > 14 M variable sites). However, as the field progresses into whole genome imputation analyses and more powerful meta-analyses, there is a clear need to develop a standard significance threshold for common-variant GWAS. Using 1591 dogs from the broad-ancestry Dog10K dataset, we performed permutation analysis and developed GWAS thresholds for datasets using either 1% or 5% minor allele frequencies. The resultant p-values, 4.2 × 10
