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

Improving feed efficiency (FE) is essential for enhancing productivity, reducing production costs, and minimizing environmental impacts in the swine industry. Fecal microbiota and their metabolites play important roles in nutrient metabolism and energy utilization. This study aimed to investigate the fecal microbiota and associated metabolites in pigs with divergent feed conversion ratios (FCR). Fecal samples were collected from 20 Duroc × (Landrace × Yorkshire) (DLY) commercial pigs exhibiting extremely high (HFCR,
