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

Feather pecking (FP) is a significant welfare concern in poultry, which can result in reduced egg production, deterioration of feather condition, and an increase in mortality rate. This can harm the health of birds and the economic benefits of breeders. FP, as a complex trait, is regulated by multiple factors, and so far, no one has been able to elucidate its exact mechanism. In order to delve deeper into the genetic mechanism of FP, we acquired the expression matrix of dataset GSE36559. We analyzed the gene modules associated with the trait through WGCNA (Weighted correlation network analysis), and then used KEGG and GO to identify the biological pathways enriched by the modules using KEGG and GO. Subsequently, we analyzed the module with the highest correlation (0.99) using three machine learning (ML) algorithms to identify the feature genes that they collectively recognized. In this study, five feature genes, NUFIP2, ST14, OVM, GLULD1, and LOC424943, were identified. Finally, the discriminant value of the feature genes was evaluated by manipulating the receiver operating curve (ROC) in the external dataset GSE10380.
