Livestock Slurry and Sustainable Pasture Management: Microbial Roles, Environmental Impacts, and Regulatory Perspectives in Ireland and Europe.
Review in Microorganisms, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Pastures serve as the primary source of grass and forage plants for grazing livestock, requiring adequate nutrient input to sustain growth and soil fertility. Slurry from the livestock industry is widely utilized as a sustainable and cost-effective alternative to chemical fertilizers. Microorganisms within the slurry-pasture system are essential for breaking down organic matter, facilitating nutrient cycling, and improving soil health. However, mismanagement or inefficient microbial decomposition can lead to significant issues, such as nutrient leaching into water bodies, causing eutrophication, antimicrobial resistance, and reduced nutrient availability in pastures, which, in turn, may negatively impact livestock productivity. Thus, this paper investigates the composition and benefits of livestock slurry in pasture management, highlights microbial roles in nutrient cycling, and evaluates regulatory frameworks in Ireland and Europe. Additionally, it examines the environmental risks associated with improper slurry application, providing insights to support sustainable management practices.
