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

Recently, fermented feed materials (FFM) have gained attention for their potential to improve overall performance in piglets. In this study, the effect of supplementing FFM to the diet of Topigs Norsvin Yorkshire piglets (weaning) on growth performance and health parameters was investigated. The whole experiment was divided into two phases: suckling (days 7 to 25) and weaning (days 25 to 69). During the suckling phase, 36 piglets (divided into three groups of 12 piglets/group) were assigned to three groups to differently 'program' their gut: (1) control (C) group, receiving a full-fledged commercial pre-starter feed, and (2) the Pp and (3) Pa groups, which received 25 mL of fermented milk permeate prepared either with
