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
This study compared two types of automatic milking systems (AMSs) and their relationship with epidemiological indices of subclinical mastitis (SCM) and prevalence of mastitis-causing pathogens. Conducted between 2020 and 2023 on a dairy farm in Vacaria, Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil, this study analyzed data from 464 lactating cows housed in compost-bedded pack barns (CBPBs) and milked by eight AMS units: four from DeLaval (which utilizes teat cup for teat cleaning) and four from Lely (which utilizes brushes for teat cleaning). SCM incidence, prevalence, percentage of chronic, and cured cows were determined using somatic cell counts (SCCs) and microbiological cultures. Statistical analyses included the Wilcoxon signed-rank test and Chi-square test to evaluate SCM indices and pathogen associations with AMSs. No significant difference was observed in SCM prevalence (
