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
The inhibition of methyl-coenzyme M reductase (MCR) effectively suppresses ruminal methanogen activity, thereby mitigating enteric methane emissions in ruminants. However, the development of highly specific and environmentally sustainable inhibitors remains a significant challenge. This study aimed to identify key bioactive compounds from Cannabis sativa L. residue (CSR) that function as novel methane inhibitors that specifically target MCR by computational molecular screening. Cannabidiol (CBD) and delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) were identified as potential candidate compounds using the molecular docking technique. CBD and THC were found to be compounds that can navigate through a narrow channel and bind to the active sites of MCR, with calculated binding free energies of -8.8 and -5.5 kcal/mol, respectively. Furthermore, the effects of CSR supplementation levels on rumen fermentation, nutrient digestibility, methane production, and the ruminal microbial population were investigated through in vitro rumen fermentation simulations, as well as in situ digestibility analysis according to a completed randomized design (CRD). Compared with the control, supplementation with 2% total DM substrate in a total mixed ration (TMR) diet resulted in a 34% decrease in methane production. In addition, CSR increased the molar proportion of propionic acid and the concentration of ammonia-nitrogen (NH
