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

Inheritance of overweight in humans appears to be under polygenic control. Study on the mouse model may help to determine candidate regions in human genome for the search of overweight genes. Inbred mouse strains showed wide variation in body weight and can provide an experimental model for the study of inheritance of overweight. By genetic linkage analysis, we report the mapping of two loci, named Bw1 and Bw2 (body weight 1 and 2), on Chromosome (Chr) X that strongly affect adult body weight in two interspecific testcross male populations (HSB) and ASB) of mice. In addition, another locus, named Bw3, is also mapped on Chr X in ASB populations. These loci account for up to 24% of the phenotypic variation in both populations. Considering the conserved synteny between mouse and humans Chr X, these results provide candidate regions on Chr X that can be tested for linkage with overweight in humans.
