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

The cashmere fibers produced by the secondary hair follicles of cashmere goats are precious textile raw materials. The secondary hair follicles exhibit a distinct annual cyclical pattern, comprising anagen, catagen, and telogen phases. Although a large amount of skin transcriptome data is currently available for cashmere goats, this study aims to systematically investigate the regulatory factors controlling the cyclical dynamics of secondary hair follicles through re-analysis of these data. Skin transcriptome data of Inner Mongolian cashmere goats were downloaded from the Sequence Read Archive (SRA) database. Bioinformatics analyses, including quality control, read mapping, quantification, differential expression analysis, Gene Ontology (GO) enrichment analysis, and KEGG pathway analysis, were performed to identify key regulatory genes governing the secondary hair follicle cycle. The results revealed a total of 1232 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) from comparisons across different phases. KEGG pathway analysis identified three signaling pathways associated with cashmere development: the cAMP signaling pathway (chx04024), the relaxin signaling pathway (chx04926), and the estrogen signaling pathway (chx04915). GO analysis yielded 335 terms, of which 236 were statistically significant (
