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

Genome-wide association study (GWAS) is the most popular approach to dissecting complex traits in plants, humans, and animals. Numerous methods and tools have been proposed to discover the causal variants for GWAS data analysis. Among them, linear mixed models (LMMs) are widely used statistical methods for regulating confounding factors, including population structure, resulting in increased computational proficiency and statistical power in GWAS studies. Recently more attention has been paid to pleiotropy, multi-trait, gene-gene interaction, gene-environment interaction, and multi-locus methods with the growing availability of large-scale GWAS data and relevant phenotype samples. In this review, we have demonstrated all possible LMMs-based methods available in the literature for GWAS. We briefly discuss the different LMM methods, software packages, and available open-source applications in GWAS. Then, we include the advantages and weaknesses of the LMMs in GWAS. Finally, we discuss the future perspective and conclusion. The present review paper would be helpful to the researchers for selecting appropriate LMM models and methods quickly for GWAS data analysis and would benefit the scientific society.
