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

backgroundNeonatal calf diarrhea accounts for most pre-weaned calf losses in Hanwoo cattle. A novel predictive model of severe neonatal calf diarrhea will help veterinarians and farmers prevent disease in calves. HYPOTHESIS/

objectivesDevelopment and external validation of a simple predictive model for severe neonatal calf diarrhea in Hanwoo cattle. ANIMALS: Hanwoo calves were used to develop the model (n = 3179) and for its external validation (n = 1383).

methodsRetrospective, observational study. The predictive model was developed using logistic regression analysis with data from Hanwoo calves from 2019 to 2022. The model was externally validated using data from Hanwoo calves in 2018 and 2023.

resultsAfter univariable and multivariable logistic analyses, the month of birth, rainy weather, duration of pregnancy, dam parity, retained fetal membranes, prevalence of neonatal calf diarrhea, induction of parturition, bedding type, and management of failure transfer of passive immunity were selected as predictors, with a sensitivity of 74.1% (95% confidence interval [CI]: 68.9%-78.7%) and specificity of 72.2% (95% CI: 70.6%-73.8%; area under the curve [AUC]: 0.79, 95% CI: 0.766-0.814). In external validation, the accuracy was 83.3% (95% CI: 81.2%-85.2%). Sensitivity and specificity were 60% (95% CI: 50.0%-69.3%) and 85% (95% CI: 82.9%-86.9%), respectively. CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL IMPORTANCE: We have identified predictors for severe neonatal calf diarrhea in Hanwoo calves and have developed a simple, easily calculated scoring prediction model based on these predictors.
