Sijunzi San alleviates the negative energy balance in postpartum dairy cows by regulating rumen fermentation capacity.

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
Introduction: Postpartum dairy cows are susceptible to negative energy balance caused by decreased feed intake and the initiation of lactation. Sijunzi San, a famous Chinese traditional herbal formulation, can promote gastrointestinal digestion and absorption and improve disorders of intestinal microbiota. Therefore, we hypothesized that Sijunzi San might alleviate negative energy balance in postpartum dairy cows by modulating the structure of the rumen microbiota and enhancing its fermentation capacity. Methods: Liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) was utilized Results: Doses of 100 to 500 mg of the Sijunzi San significantly enhanced gas production, microbial protein (MCP), and short-chain fatty acid (SCFA) levels, while notably reducing pH and NH Discussion: The findings suggest that administering Sijunzi San to dairy cows during the postpartum period can ameliorate negative energy balance by stimulating rumen fermentation and modifying the composition and abundance of the rumen microbiota.
