Effects of Altitude on the Digestion Performance, Serum Antioxidative Characteristics, Rumen Fermentation Parameters, and Rumen Bacteria of Sanhe Heifers.
Article in Frontiers in microbiology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 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
The production efficiency of dairy cows is affected by altitude, with lower efficiency reported at higher altitudes. However, only a few studies have investigated the digestion performance, serum antioxidative characteristics, rumen fermentation performance, and rumen bacteria of Sanhe heifers at different altitudes. Therefore, in this study, we explored the effects of altitude on these aspects of Sanhe heifers. We evaluated the effects of altitude on the apparent digestibility of nutrients, serum antioxidative characteristics, rumen fermentation parameters, and rumen bacteria in Sanhe heifers. Twenty Sanhe heifers from the same herd and managed with the same practice were used. However, the heifers were from two regions in China: 10 were fed in Hulunbuir City, Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region (119°57'E, 47°17'N; approximately 700 m altitude, named LA) and 10 were fed in Lhasa City, Tibet Autonomous Region (91°06'E, 29°36'N; approximately 3,750 m altitude, named HA). The dry matter intake (DMI), average daily gain (ADG), and DMI/ADG ratio were higher (
