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

Cottonseed cake (CSC) is a cost-effective and important protein source for ruminants. In India, Bt cotton has replaced 96% of non-Bt, making Bt CSC, the predominant byproduct available for animal feeding. While some studies have assessed the effect of Bt genes and proteins on livestock health, no long-term evaluations have been conducted. This study investigated the prolonged effects of feeding Bt cottonseed cake on growth performance, feed intake, and blood parameters in rams, particularly within tropical systems Eighteen male rams were divided into three treatment groups: G
