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

backgroundsObjective of this study is to conduct a genome-wide association study (GWAS) of first-parity reproductive traits in Suzi pigs to identify significant single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) or candidate genes influencing these traits.

methodsThis research employed technologies including the Zhongxin 50K SNP chip, simplified genome sequencing, resequencing, and the 100K SNP liquid chip to perform genome-wide SNP detection on 898 Suzi sows. Genotype data and phenotypic data were combined to do GWAS, gene annotation, and enrichment analysis.

resultsResults showed that this study obtained phenotypes of 33 first-parity reproductive traits from 574 sows. GWAS results indicated there were 10 first-parity reproductive traits significantly associated with SNPs, and these traits were AFS, AFF, NNB, NH, NW, NS, NM, ND, PB, and CCN. These 10 traits were significantly associated with 60 SNPs, with 15 (25%) located on chromosome 2-the highest proportion. The SNPs significantly associated with AFS and AFF were largely identical. Genome-wide variance component analysis revealed that among the 10 traits with significantly associated SNPs in GWAS, there were 5 traits that exhibited genome-wide heritability ≥ 0.01. Trait of NM showed the highest heritability (0.65-0.7). These significantly associated SNPs annotated 20 candidate genes, including ADAMTS19, PROP1, ZNF354B, PCARE, LUZP2, VIRMA, EPHA5, AAAS, SLCO3A1-SV2B, KIF18A-BDNF, SERGEF, DYNLRB2, HNF4G, CATSPERD, HSD11B1L, DICER1, RARG, PCDHAC2, KRT79, and HSD17B2. GO analysis of candidate genes revealed that the top three biological processes were cell adhesion, positive regulation of cell projection organization, and positive regulation of neuron projection development. KEGG results showed the top three pathways were inositol phosphate metabolism, glutamatergic synapse, and phosphatidylinositol signaling system.

conclusionsThese findings provide a foundation for the reproductive breeding of Suzi pigs and offer new insights into biological breeding in pigs.
