Analysis of the effects of thermal stress on milk production in a humid tropical climate using linear and non-linear models.
Article in Tropical animal health and production, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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 decline of milk production in crossbred cattle during the onset of summer was evaluated using lactation records of the cows (n = 48) maintained at the Livestock Research Station, Thiruvazhamkunnu, for the period between January 2019 and March 2019. Climate data were obtained from an automatic weather station maintained on the campus. The temperature-humidity index (THI) was used to assess the thermal stress on animals. Values varied between 70.78 and 83.93 during the study period, indicating that the cows were exposed to mild and moderate stress. Highly significant negative correlations (p < 0.01) were observed between the average temperature, THI, and milk production. Linear, logarithmic, power, and polynomial models linking milk production and THI were used to fit the data. The coefficient of determination (R
