Genome-Wide Association Study for Individual Primal Cut Quality Traits in Canadian Commercial Crossbred Pigs.
Article in Animals : an open access journal from MDPI, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
This study identified genomic variants and potential candidate genes associated with 11 primal cut traits (back fat, belly fat, total fat, loin fat, ham fat, picnic fat, butt fat, loin intramuscular fat content, ham side fat, shoulder dorsal fat, and belly side fat thicknesses) in Canadian commercial crossbred pigs. Genome-wide association studies using whole genome sequencing data were conducted using genotyping data from 1118 commercial crossbred pigs. This analysis revealed multiple QTLs across chromosomes SSC1, 2, 3, 6, 7, 9, 14, 15, and 17, associated with fat traits. Notably, an SNP at position 160,230,075 bp on SSC1 was significantly associated with multiple fat traits, including belly fat, butt fat, ham fat, loin fat, picnic fat, and side fat. Common genes in windows associated with multiple traits, such as
