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 present study was conducted to evaluate the ensiling characteristics of selected forage maize varieties harvested in sole and forage legume mixtures. Two different forage maize varieties were harvested in different forage systems, that is, sole maize, maize + common vetch and maize + lablab intercrops, and ensiled in small-scale silos. After ensiling, samples were collected to examine the nutrient composition, fermentation quality and microbial population. Ensiled forage varieties harvested in sole forage systems had a significantly (
