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

The study aimed to evaluate the effect of subclinical endometritis (SCE) on reproductive performance and identify risk factors for this pathology in small-scale dairies. In four small-scale dairies, 608 lactations were monitored for health issues, nutritional status, and reproductive events, and SCE was diagnosed based on endometrial polymorphonuclear counting (PMN%) at 30±5 (SCE30) and 60±5 (SCE60) days postpartum. The threshold for diagnosis was established according to the quartile distribution of PMN%; 4 % and 2 % for SCE30 and SCE60. Conception rate at first service (CRFS), number of services per conception (SC), and days open (DO) were analyzed for SCE effect through Chi-square or ANOVA. Events of interest were considered in each lactation to perform a risk factor analysis using univariate logistic regression and multiple logistic regression model building. The population attributable fraction was calculated to identify the most important risk factors. Considering both sampling periods, 40.5 % of the cows were positive for SCE. SCE30-positive cows had lower CRFS (38.9 vs 53.7 %), required 0.4 more SC, and had 20.2 more DO than SCE30-negative cows (
