1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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 study of growth curves in sheep is an effective approach to monitor the animal development for predicting the growth rate and improving overall flock performance. The purpose of the present work was to study the growth curve traits of Munjal sheep using different non-linear models and to estimate the genetic parameters of those traits for the possibility of inclusion of them under selection strategy. Total 2285 weight records at birth, 3, 6 and 12 months of age of 706 lambs born to 48 sires and 149 dams were collected from the registers maintained from 2004 to 2019. Various non-linear growth models viz., Brody, Gompertz, logistic, Bertalanffy and negative exponential were fitted to targeted growth curve traits and then evaluated using goodness of fit criteria such as adjusted R
