Passive transfer of colostral leukocytes: A benefit/risk analysis.
Review in The Canadian veterinary journal = La revue veterinaire canadienne, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Passive immunity is a requirement for survival of conventionally reared domestic animals. Maternal antibody is recognized as the primary effector mechanism of protection of the neonate. There is interest, especially in bovine medicine, in the maternal leukocytes that are also transferred in colostrum. These leukocytes are thought to somehow aid in the development of the neonatal immune system and participate in cellular immune reactions in the neonate, although the means by which this is accomplished is unknown. The purpose of this article is to review the immunology of this maternal/neonatal interaction, and on that basis, evaluate the practical benefits and risks of assuring passive transfer of colostral leukocytes.
