The assessment of the impact of feeding systems on meat quality: a comparison of conventional and organic beef production.

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
This study evaluated the growth performance, carcass attributes, and meat quality of steers raised under organic and conventional agricultural systems. In the conventional system, steers were divided into two feeding groups. The first group, comprising Kampaeng Saen steers (KPS-Rf) and crossbred dairy steers (CDS-Rf), received a restricted concentrate diet (8 kg/head/day) along with unlimited Napier grass silage. The second group, consisting of Kampaeng Saen steers (KPS-Ab) and crossbred Wagyu steers (WC-Ab), was fed ad libitum concentrate and Napier grass silage. The conventional system resulted in significantly higher weight gain, final weight, average daily gain, and a more favorable feed conversion ratio compared to the organic system (P < 0.05). Within the conventional system, no significant differences were found between the limited and ad libitum concentrate feeding groups for final weight, weight gain, or average daily gain (P > 0.05). Significant differences (P < 0.05) were observed for hot and cold carcass weights, with the conventional system generally outperforming the organic system. Meat from the conventional system exhibited lower pH levels and lighter color (higher L* values) compared to the organic system (P < 0.05). Regarding nutritional composition, meat from the organic system contained higher crude protein and lower fat content compared to the conventional system (P < 0.05). Additionally, significant differences were observed in the fatty acid profiles, with organic meat showing higher levels of polyunsaturated fatty acids and omega-3 fatty acids (P < 0.05). KPS-Rf exhibited better growth performance and feed conversion efficiency than the other breeds in both conventional and organic systems.
