Genetic Diversity Estimation and Genome-Wide Selective Sweep Analysis of the Bazhou Yak.

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
The Bazhou yak, a major native meat yak breed in Xinjiang, China, is renowned for its fast growth rate, strong adaptability, and particularly high intramuscular fat (IMF) content. However, limited knowledge regarding its phylogenetic history and genomic composition has hindered its long-term conservation and utilization. This study evaluated the genetic diversity, population phylogenetics, and genome-wide selective sweep analysis (GWSA) of 100 newly obtained Bazhou yaks through genome resequencing, as well as 340 public yak genomes from nine other populations on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. The results revealed moderate diversity, lower genomic inbreeding levels, and rapid linkage disequilibrium (LD) decay in Bazhou yaks. Principal component analysis (PCA) and phylogenetic analysis showed a clear separation of Bazhou yaks from other yak populations, indicating the Bazhou yak as an independent genetic population. Furthermore, less genetic differentiation was found between the Bazhou yak and the Huanhu yak, while ADMIXTURE analysis revealed a common ancestral lineage between Bazhou yaks and Huanhu yaks, indicating an important genetic contribution of the Qinghai yak population to Bazhou yaks. The GWSA identified a total of 833 selected genes in Bazhou yaks using the top 5% interaction windows of both parameters (
