Impact of late embryonic and early fetal mortality on productivity of beef cows.
Article in Translational animal science, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Although late embryonic/early fetal mortality (LEEFM) has been extensively researched in the context of reproductive efficiency, its long-term impact on cow productivity over a complete production cycle is poorly described in the scientific literature. This study used a prospective cohort design to evaluate the impact of late LEEFM on the productivity of beef cows. Postpartum cows (n = 2204) were exposed to a fixed-timed artificial insemination (FTAI) protocol followed by natural service breeding for the remainder of the breeding season. Pregnancy status was assessed 28 to 35 and 90 to 115 d after FTAI. Based on pregnancy status, cows were categorized into 1 of 3 cohorts: 1) Cows diagnosed as pregnant to FTAI on both pregnancy diagnoses were considered to have maintained their FTAI pregnancies (MAINT). 2) Cows diagnosed as non-pregnant to FTAI on the first diagnosis were classified as non-pregnant to FTAI (NP). 3) Cows that became pregnant to FTAI and were not pregnant to FTAI at the final pregnancy diagnosis were classified as having experienced LEEFM. Late embryonic and early fetal mortality cows had decreased final pregnancy rates (
