Correlation between l-lactate and glucose concentrations and body condition score in healthy horses and ponies.
Article in Journal of veterinary internal medicine, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
backgroundBlood l-lactate and glucose concentrations were higher in ponies with gastrointestinal disease than in horses, possibly because of differences in body condition (BC).
objectivesTo investigate whether l-lactate and glucose concentrations correlate with BC and differ between healthy horses and ponies. ANIMALS: Systemically healthy client-owned ponies (n = 101) and horses (n = 51).
methodsProspective observational study. Breed, weight, height, and subjective and objective measures of BC were recorded and l-lactate and glucose concentrations were measured. Correlations between l-lactate and glucose concentrations and BC were established. The association between l-lactate concentrations, equid type (pony or horse), BC, age, and glucose concentrations was investigated using a multivariable model.
resultsWeak but significant (P = .001) negative correlations were detected between l-lactate concentration and average BC score (r = -0.29), heart girth:height ratio (r = -0.27), and age (r = -0.27). Glucose concentrations were significantly (P < .001) positively correlated with neck length:heart girth ratio (r = 0.37) and heart girth:height ratio (r = 0.31). l-lactate and glucose concentrations were weakly correlated (r = 0.15; P = .04). In the final multivariable model, age (-0.02 ± 0.006; P = .001) and heart girth:height ratio (-1.74 ± 0.53; P = .001) were significantly associated with the natural logarithm of l-lactate concentration (Lnl-Lactate). This represents a 2% decrease in l-lactate concentration per year increase in age and 10% decrease in l-lactate concentration per 0.06 unit increase in heart girth:height ratio. CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL IMPORTANCE: In healthy horses and ponies, age and BC significantly influence l-lactate concentrations.
