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

This study clarified the effectiveness of external teat sealant (ETS) in preventing intramammary infections during lactation, using a cross-over study of two experiments (3 cows × 2 periods each) on a dairy farm. In Experiment 1, the control (Group A) received pre-dip and post-dip treatments, while the experimental group (Group B) received ETS application instead of post-dip treatment. In Experiment 2, Group C was treated the same as Group B, and Group D received ETS treatment only. After the intervention, teat ends were tested using ATP swabs, and milk collections from the first and last foremilk (Samples 1 and 2, respectively) were conducted over 4 days (8 times in total). In Experiment 1, the ETS application group exhibited lower ATP (
