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
Objective: This study aims to evaluate the predation pressure of wild canids on two threatened wild ungulates, the Pir Panjal markhor ( Materials and Methods: Between August 2020 and July 2022, we surveyed trails ( Results: The analysis revealed the presence of 10 different types of dietary items in red fox scats, while golden jackal and Himalayan wolf scats contained 11 identified items each, along with unidentified material. In all canid species, animal matter contributed more than plant matter. According to this study, livestock contributed the most to the biomass consumption of the three canid species. The Himalayan wolf also showed a small proportion of wild ungulates in its diet. According to Jacob's selectivity index, the Himalayan wolf avoided wild ungulates, probably due to the extremely small population of these ungulates in the sanctuary. Conclusion: The local wild ungulate populations in the area have been reduced to a level where the wild canids cannot opt to prey on them because the costs would outweigh the benefits. Therefore, in order to restore the population of wild ungulates, other contributing factors need to be recognized and given due attention.
