Assessed Temperatures and Stress in Cats Using Tympanic and Rectal Thermometers.
Article in Veterinary sciences, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Previous studies using tympanic thermometers on pets have presented inconsistent conclusions. The first aim of the current study was to compare the assessed temperatures using tympanic and rectal thermometers on healthy cats in a home environment and in cats admitted to clinical care. The second aim was to compare assessed stress (Fear, Anxiety and Stress scale, FAS) in healthy cats during the tympanic and rectal measurements. The non-clinical sample included 25 cats, and the clinical sample included 36 cats. The FAS score (mean ± SD) in the non-clinical sample was significantly higher (
