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

In this study, we examined the effect of xylooligosaccharide (XOS) supplementation on the growth performance, carcass characteristics, and meat quality of Hu lambs. In total, 60 Hu lambs (two months old and weighing 17.32 ± 0.81 kg) were randomly assigned to four treatment groups, each with three replicates and five lambs per replicate. The lambs were fed basal diets supplemented with 0, 1.5, 3, or 4.5 g/kg XOSs in a basal diet for 60 days, with the groups designated XOS0%, XOS1.5%, XOS3%, and XOS4.5%, respectively. The results revealed, compared to theXOS0% group, the XOS3% group presented a lower F:G during 31 to 45 d (
