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
Southwestern local chicken breeds in China have long been recognized for their strong adaptability and disease resistance, shaped by unique selective pressures during domestication. In this study, we combined Fst and π ratio analyses to detect selection signatures from RAD-seq data of four southwestern local breeds, Red Junglefowl, and 17 other Chinese local breeds. We identified 460 candidate genes under strong selection potentially associated with domestication, affecting behaviors, physiology, reproduction, immunity, and adaptability. Importantly, 34 genes showed strong and unique selection signals when comparing southwestern breeds with other local breeds. Among these,
