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

Since 2015, an idiopathic ill-thrift syndrome featuring diarrhoea and, in some cases, gastrointestinal ulceration has been reported in weaned New Zealand dairy calves. Similar syndromes have been described in the British Isles and Australia, but investigations in New Zealand have yet to identify a specific cause. Notably, the viromes of affected calves remain understudied. We conducted metatranscriptomic analyses of oral and faecal viromes in 11 calves from a dairy farm in Taranaki, New Zealand, experiencing an outbreak of this syndrome. This included nine calves showing clinical signs. Our analysis identified 18 bovine-associated viruses across two DNA and three RNA viral families, including six novel species. Oral viromes were dominated by
