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

Cyanogenic glycosides in forage species and the possibility of cyanide (CN) poisoning can have undesirable effects on ruminants. The literature estimates that unknown rumen bacteria with rhodanese activity are key factors in the animal detoxification of cyanogenic glycosides, as they are capable of transforming CN into the less toxic thiocyanate. Therefore, identifying these bacteria will enhance our understanding of how to improve animal health with this natural CN detoxification process. In this study, a rhodanese activity screening assay revealed 6 of 44 candidate rumen bacterial strains isolated from domestic buffalo, dairy cattle, and beef cattle, each with a different colony morphology. These strains were identified as belonging to the species Enterococcus faecium and E. gallinarum by 16S ribosomal DNA sequence analysis. A CN-thiocyanate transformation assay showed that the thiocyanate formation capacity of the strains after a 12 h incubation ranged from 4.42 to 25.49 mg hydrogen CN equivalent/L. In addition, thiocyanate degradation resulted in the production of ammonia nitrogen and acetic acid in different strains. This study showed that certain strains of enterococci substantially contribute to CN metabolism in ruminants. Our results may serve as a starting point for research aimed at improving ruminant production systems in relation to CN metabolism.
