Simulated seasonal diets alter yak rumen microbiota structure and metabolic function.

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
Yak is the only ruminant on the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau that grazes year-round. Although previous research has shown that yak rumen microbiota fluctuates in robust patterns with seasonal foraging, it remains unclear whether these dynamic shifts are driven by changes in environment or nutrient availability. The study examines the response of yak rumen microbiota (bacteria, fungi, and archaea) to simulated seasonal diets, excluding the contribution of environmental factors. A total of 18 adult male yaks were randomly divided into three groups, including a nutrition stress group (NSG, simulating winter pasture), a grazing simulation group (GSG, simulating warm season pasture), and a supplementation group (SG, simulating winter pasture supplemented with feed concentrates). Volatile fatty acids (VFAs) profiling showed that ruminal acetate, propionate and total VFA contents were significantly higher (
