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 late-gestation period is a key stage in the reproductive cycle of sows, which is related to the health of sows and the fetal development. In order to increase sow reproduction in late gestation, the fermented diet was produced and applied in this study. A total of 24 sows in the third pregnancy were divided into four groups on the 80th day gestation, 6 sows in each group. Group A was a basal diet served as the control group; groups B, C and D were added with 5, 10 and 15% fermented diet, respectively. The experiment was 35 days (from the 80th day gestation until parturition). The results showed that the sows in group D exhibited the best reproductive performance. Compared to group A, litter weight in group D was increased by 24.91% (
