Bovine reproductive tract and microbiome dynamics: current knowledge, challenges, and its potential to enhance fertility in dairy cows.
Review in Frontiers in microbiomes, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 13 papers.
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 cattle production system focuses on maintaining an animal-based food supply with a lower number of cattle. However, the fecundity of dairy cows has declined worldwide. The reproductive tract microbiome is one of the important factors which can influence bovine fecundity. Therefore, reproductive tract microbiomes have been explored during the estrus cycle, artificial insemination, gestation, and postpartum to establish a link between the micro-communities and reproductive performance. These investigations suggested that microbial dysbiosis in the reproductive tract may be associated with declined fertility. However, there is a scarcity of comprehensive investigations to understand microbial diversity, abundance, shift, and host-microbiome interplay for bovine infertility cases such as repeat breeding syndrome (RBS). This review summarizes the occurrence and persistence of microbial taxa to gain a better understanding of reproductive performance and its implications. Further, we also discuss the possibilities of microbiome manipulation strategies to enhance bovine fecundity.
