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

backgroundIn pigs, a hair whorl refers to hairs that form a ring of growth around the direction of the hair follicle at the dorsal hip. In China, a hair whorl is considered a negative trait that affects marketing, and no studies have been conducted to demonstrate whether hair whorl affects pig performance and provide an explanation for its genetic basis.

methodsPerformance-measured traits and slaughter-measured traits of hair whorl and non-hair whorl pigs were differentially analyzed, followed by genome-wide association analysis (GWAS) and copy number variation (CNV) methods to investigate the genetic basis of hair whorl in pigs.

resultsDifferential analysis of 2625 pigs (171 hair whorl and 2454 non-hair whorl) for performance measures showed that hair whorl and non-hair whorl pigs differed significantly (

conclusionsThe candidate genes and copy number variation differences identified in this study provide a new theoretical basis for pig breeding efforts.
