Retrospective Analysis of Reproductive Performance of Pair-bred Compared with Trio-bred Mice.
Article in Journal of the American Association for Laboratory Animal Science : JAALAS, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers.
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
Federal guidelines provide recommendations regarding the minimum of floor space that should be allotted for breeding laboratory rodents. Mouse mating systems used by a variety of institutions frequently deviate from these recommendations. Regulatory agencies suggest that deviations from established guidelines should be assessed on an institutional basis and recommend periodic review by the local IACUC. Mouse breeding data, collected in a laboratory animal management software program at a single institution, were retrospectively analyzed to determine the effects of 2 breeding schemes on reproductive performance. Data were analyzed over a 20-mo period from all inbred strains of mice breeding in the vivarium. Variables included total number of pups per litter, pups per female, and litters per female. Data indicated that the numbers of pups and litters per dam do not differ between trio-bred (one male, 2 female) and pair-bred (one male, one female) mice. However, more pups were weaned per litter in trio-bred (mean, 5.8 pups) when-compared with pair-bred (mean, 4.7 pups) mice. These results suggest that allocating less than the recommended amount of floor space is not detrimental to the overall breeding success of the strains of mice examined.
