Associations Between Feeding Behaviors, Residual Feed Intake, and Residual Average Daily Gain in Performance Tested Yearling Bulls and Heifers Fed a High-Forage Diet.
Article in Animals : an open access journal from MDPI, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Variation in individual animal feed intake is influenced by factors such as bunk management, digestive physiology, social hierarchy, and health status. While previous research has primarily examined feeding behavior in cattle offered high-concentrate diets, limited information exists regarding these relationships in high-forage systems. Residual Feed Intake (RFI), defined as the difference between an animal's actual and expected feed intake based on metabolic mid-test body weight and average daily gain, serves as a key measure of feed efficiency. Animals with negative RFI values are classified as more efficient, whereas those with positive values are less efficient. This study investigated associations between feeding behavior and feed efficiency in yearling purebred Angus bulls (
