Evidence-based veterinary medicine perception by swine veterinarians: a European survey across diverse practitioner profiles.
Article in Frontiers in veterinary 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
Evidence-Based Veterinary Medicine (EBVM) enhances the quality of care by guiding clinical decisions with robust scientific data, leading to more effective disease management. Evaluating the levels of knowledge and use is crucial for identifying gaps and training needs, ultimately promoting the adoption of evidence-based practices and optimizing herd health and productivity. This study aimed to give an overview of EBVM perception, with the goal of raising awareness of this concept and highlighting reservations they face in applying it to decision-making process in swine veterinary practice. A cross-sectional online survey was conducted among European swine veterinarians. Respondent characteristics and knowledge of EBVM were analyzed using descriptive statistics. Associations between demographic variables (country, specialization) and EBVM knowledge were assessed using Chi-square tests with Yates' continuity correction where appropriate. A significant level of 0.05 was applied. Results showed that 68% of veterinarians were familiar with EBVM, with knowledge levels varying by country (
