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
Introduction: To facilitate the conservation and sustainable utilization of the Inner Mongolia Cashmere Goat (IMCG)-an important genetic resource and economically valuable breed-this study performed a genome homozygosity assessment of its Erlangshan subtype population, analyzed the distribution characteristics of runs of homozygosity (ROH), and compared inbreeding coefficients estimated using different methods. Methods: A total of 384 individuals were genotyped using the Illumina Goat SNP70K BeadChip. PLINK software was employed to conduct ROH analysis, estimate genomic inbreeding coefficients, and identify ROH islands based on the obtained SNP data. Results: The results revealed 3,622 ROH segments in the population, with an average total ROH length of 71.48 Mb per individual. The inbreeding coefficients based on ROH (F Conclusion: This study systematically characterized ROH patterns in IMCG, indicating a generally low level of genomic inbreeding in the population, though certain individuals still require attention. The identification of genes related to economically important traits further reveals the genetic distinctiveness and breeding potential of IMCG, providing valuable insights for informing future conservation and breeding strategies.
