Selective Dry-Off Therapy in Conventional Dairy Farms: The Influence of Quarter-Level Selection Criteria on Postpartum Mastitis and Somatic Cell Count.

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 present study assessed the efficacy of selective dry cow therapy (SDCT) on two commercial Holstein-Friesian farms in the Czech Republic, involving 572 quarter milk samples from 74 cows collected over a two-year period. Quarter samples were taken both at dry-off (n = 296) and post-calving (n = 276) to assess somatic cell count (SCC), cultured microbial results (counts), milk composition, and mastitis incidence. The average SCC at dry-off was 264,000 cells/mL (SD = 650,000) in Farm 1 and 224,000 cells/mL in Farm 2. Mastitis incidence averaged 24.42% and 18.75% in Farms 1 and 2, respectively. Correlation analysis revealed significant associations between pre-dry-off milk parameters and post-calving udder health indicators, including negative correlations between SCC prior to drying-off and lactose content after calving (r = -0.161,
