Control of Neonatal Diarrhea in Piglets with Reduced Antibiotic Use by Application of a Complementary Feed-A Randomized Controlled Farm Trial.

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
The objective of this farm trial was to investigate if the consumption of antibiotics could be reduced when piglets showing early signs of neonatal diarrhea were treated with an oral dose of tannin extract derived from sweet chestnut wood. The farm had a very high incidence of neonatal diarrhea among gilt litters. Gilts were randomized into test or control groups in a 1:1 ratio to compare the consumption of antibiotics used for piglets and piglet mortality during the four-week trial period. Control litters were treated with the oral antibiotic paromomycin, while test litters were treated with the complementary feed O-Nella-Protect. The farm trial included 18 gilt litters comprising 254 piglets. In the control group, 100% of the piglets received antibiotic treatment. In the test group, consumption of antibiotics used against diarrhea was reduced by 84% (
