Prevalence of bovine mastitis and main risk factors in Tunisia.
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 5 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
Tunisian milk chain is in danger with a dramatical reduction of milk production over the last years. Improving the quality of milk seems mandatory to improve farmers' income, but for the moment, there is only scarce data on milk quality management in Tunisia. In this context, the aims of our study were first to describe the prevalence of bovine mastitis in 267 cows from 71 representative small dairy farms in the North (43.7%) and Center (56.3%) regions of Tunisia, using mastitis detection by California Mastitis Test (CMT) on milk quarter and clinical signs, and second, to assess possible risk factors for mastitis from animal, environment, and breeding management. In parallel, cow and bulk milk somatic cell count (SCC) were analyzed. Our results demonstrated that 60.3% of cows showed mastitis as determined by CMT and clinical examinations. Increased stage of lactation, parity, udder depth, and type of milking were significantly (P < 0.05) associated with increased odds of mastitis prevalence. The mean of individual cow SCC (ISCC) and bulk milk SCC (BMSCC) was very high (1083 × 10
