Genomic Structural Diversity in Local Goats: Analysis of Copy-Number Variations.
Article in Animals : an open access journal from MDPI, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 papers.
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
Copy-number variations (CNVs) are one of the widely dispersed forms of structural variations in mammalian genomes, and are present as deletions, insertions, or duplications. Only few studies have been conducted in goats on CNVs derived from SNP array data, and many local breeds still remain uncharacterized, e.g., the Sicilian goat dairy breeds. In this study, CNV detection was performed, starting from the genotypic data of 120 individuals, belonging to four local breeds (Argentata dell'Etna, Derivata di Siria, Girgentana, and Messinese), genotyped with the Illumina GoatSNP50 BeadChip array. Overall, 702 CNVs were identified in 107 individuals using PennCNV software based on the hidden Markov model algorithm. These were merged in 75 CNV regions (CNVRs), i.e., regions containing CNVs overlapped by at least 1 base pair, while 85 CNVs remained unique. The part of the genome covered by CNV events was 35.21 Mb (1.2% of the goat genome length). Functional annotation of the CNVRs allowed the identification of 139 genes/loci within the most frequent CNVRs that are involved in local adaptations, such as coat colour (
