Breed-Specific Obstetric and Neonatal Parameters in Labrador Retrievers: Factors Influencing Early Neonatal Survival.
Article in Animals : an open access journal from MDPI, 2026. 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
This study evaluated reproductive parameters, parturition characteristics, and early neonatal survival in 42 pregnant Labrador Retriever bitches and their 346 puppies between June and December 2024. The mean age of the bitches was 4.06 ± 1.59 years, and their average body weight was 33.14 ± 3.72 kg. Litter size averaged 8.24 ± 1.88 puppies, with an almost equal sex ratio (50.2% males; 49.8% females). Mean labour duration was 743 min, and intervals between successive births shortened initially before increasing in late parturition. In 57.1% of litters, all puppies were born alive. Early neonatal mortality was low: 0.6% within the first hour and 8.4% by day seven postpartum. A significant association was detected between prolonged parturition and a higher percentage of stillborn puppies (
