Genome-Wide Association Study of Rib Number and Total Thoracolumbar Vertebrae Number in a Jishen Black Pig Population.
Article in Veterinary sciences, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
The Jishen Black pig is a synthetic breed incorporating the genetic backgrounds of Chinese indigenous pigs and Western lean-type pigs. The objective of this study was to characterize phenotypic variation, estimate genetic parameters, and identify genomic loci associated with rib number (NR) and the total number of thoracolumbar vertebrae (NTLV) in Jishen Black pigs. NR, NTLV, and lumbar vertebra number (NLV) were measured in 389 pigs, and genotyping was performed using a 70K SNP chip. Genetic parameters were estimated using HIBLUP, and genome-wide association studies (GWAS) were conducted using the MLM and BLINK models in GAPIT v3.0. The mean values of NR, NTLV, and NLV were 14.88, 20.94, and 6.05, respectively, and their heritability estimates were 0.568, 0.493, and 0.140, respectively. GWAS identified a shared major association peak for NR and NTLV on SSC7 at 91.19-98.15 Mb, centered on
