Effects of Dietary Energy Levels on Rumen Fermentation, Gastrointestinal Tract Histology, and Bacterial Community Diversity in Fattening Male Hu Lambs.
Article in Frontiers in microbiology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 25 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
This study investigated rumen fermentation and histological and microbial diversity in male Hu lamb fed diets with different metabolizable energy (ME) levels (MEA, 9.17 MJ/kg, MEB, 10.00 MJ/kg, and MEC, 10.82 MJ/kg). Thirty-six male Hu lambs were randomly allotted to three treatments, and the feeding trial lasted for 67 days. Rumen fermentation results suggest that the iso-valerate had a significant effect on dietary energy level. The papillary height (PH) of rumen was the highest in the MEB group, the crypt depth (CD) was significantly increased in the duodenum and jejunum, and the villus height (VH)-to-CD ratio (VH/CD) was significantly decreased in the duodenum by increasing dietary energy levels; the VH, villus width (VW), and VH/CD also had significant differences in the ileum. 16S rRNA sequencing results showed that the operational taxonomic units (OTUs) number, the ACE, and Chao1 indices were linearly decreased by increasing dietary energy level; 24 phyla including 124 genera were identified, and the relative abundance of
