Negative dietary cation-anion difference and amount of calcium in prepartum diets: Effects on urine and serum minerals.
Article in JDS communications, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Negative dietary cation-anion difference (DCAD) diets fed prepartum induce a compensated metabolic acidosis, which stimulates metabolic Ca flux before calving and decreases clinical and subclinical hypocalcemia after calving. Effects of low or high dietary Ca in these diets are unclear. Our objective was to determine the effects of inducing a prepartum metabolic acidosis and the amount of dietary Ca on urinary mineral excretion and serum mineral concentrations during the transition period in multiparous Holstein cows (n = 81). Treatment diets fed during the last 28 d before calving were (1) positive DCAD, +6 mEq/100 g of dry matter (DM), target urine pH >7.5, low dietary Ca (0.40% DM; CON); (2) negative DCAD, -24 mEq/100 g of DM, target urine pH 5.5 to 6.0, low dietary Ca (0.40% DM; ND); or (3) negative DCAD, -24 mEq/100 g of DM, target urine pH 5.5 to 6.0, high dietary Ca (2.0% DM; NDCA). Urine was sampled on -21, -14, -7, +1, +2, and +7 d relative to calving. Blood samples were collected on d -30, -21, -14, -7, -4, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, and 4 relative to parturition. Preplanned treatment contrasts were (1) CON versus ND and NDCA, and (2) ND versus NDCA. Cows fed ND or NDCA had increased urinary volume and excretion of Ca, Cl, and SO
