Heat stress affects mammary metabolism by influencing the plasma flow to the glands.
Article in Journal of animal science and biotechnology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
backgroundEnvironmental heat stress (HS) can have detrimental effects on milk production by compromising the mammary function. Mammary plasma flow (MPF) plays a crucial role in nutrient supply and uptake in the mammary gland. In this experiment, we investigated the physiological and metabolic changes in high-yielding cows exposed to different degrees of HS: no HS with thermal-humidity index (THI) below 68 (No-HS), mild HS (Mild-HS, 68 ≤ THI ≤ 79), and moderate HS (Mod-HS, 79 < THI ≤ 88) in their natural environment. Our study focused on the changes in blood oxygen supply and mammary glucose uptake and utilization.
resultsCompared with No-HS, the MPF of dairy cows was greater (P < 0.01) under Mild-HS, but was lower (P < 0.01) in cows under Mod-HS. Oxygen supply and consumption exhibited similar changes to the MPF under different HS, with no difference in ratio of oxygen consumption to supply (P = 0.46). The mammary arterio-vein differences in glucose concentration were lower (P < 0.05) under Mild- and Mod-HS than under no HS. Glucose supply and flow were significantly increased (P < 0.01) under Mild-HS but significantly decreased (P < 0.01) under Mod-HS compared to No-HS. Glucose uptake (P < 0.01) and clearance rates (P < 0.01) were significantly reduced under Mod-HS compared to those under No-HS and Mild-HS. Under Mild-HS, there was a significant decrease (P < 0.01) in the ratio of lactose yield to mammary glucose supply compared to that under No-HS and Mod-HS, with no difference (P = 0.53) in the ratio of lactose yield to uptaken glucose among different HS situations.
conclusionsDegrees of HS exert different influences on mammary metabolism, mainly by altering MPF in dairy cows. The output from this study may help us to develop strategies to mitigate the impact of different degrees of HS on milk production.
