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 aimed to assess changes in the surface temperature and physiological parameters of cats exposed to a fear model involving negative dog-cat interactions, receiving three pharmacological options: a single dose of cannabidiol, gabapentin, or synthetic facial pheromones. The surface temperature of the upper and lower limbs, facial, dorsal, and appendicular thermal windows was assessed through infrared thermography. Additionally, heart rate, respiratory rate, and rectal temperature were recorded. Eighty male and female domestic cats were included in the study and randomly divided into four groups: CONTROL (placebo, 2 mL/cat orally), CBD (cannabidiol, 2 mg/kg orally), GABA (gabapentin, 100 mg/cat orally), and SFP (synthetic facial pheromone, two sprays/carrier). All cats underwent six experimental phases: T
