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

This study aimed to estimate genetic parameters for body weight in 1,949 Murrah buffalo females raised under tropical conditions. Random regression models with Legendre polynomials were used to analyze growth data. Heritability estimates increased with age, ranging from 0.058 (at 28 days of age) to 0.244 (at 693 days of age). Genetic correlations decreased as the interval between weighing ages increased, reaching 0.1916 between 30 and 720 days of age. The findings suggest that selection for growth is more effective at older ages and that random regression models provide accurate genetic evaluations for female buffaloes in tropical environments.
