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

Abnormal hepatic energy metabolism limits the growth and development of piglets. We hypothesized that β-hydroxybutyrate (BHB) might improve the growth performance of piglets by maintaining hepatic caloric homeostasis. A total of 30 litters of newborn piglets were tracked, and 30 postnatal growth retardation (PGR) piglets and 40 healthy piglets were selected to treat with normal saline with or without BHB (25 mg/kg/days) at 7-d-old. At the age of 42 days, 8 piglets in each group were sacrificed, and serum and liver were collected. Compared with the healthy-control group piglets, PGR piglets showed lower body weight (BW) and liver weight (
