1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

White-backed and Ash-grey cows yielded an average of 6212 kg and 6078 kg of milk per year, with 4.25-4.28% fat and 3.37-3.40% protein, while Holsteins averaged 10,694 kg with 4.47% fat and 3.45% protein. The study aimed to analyse the fatty acid (FA) profile of milk from two local cow breeds, compare them with that of Holstein cows, and evaluate the influence of lactation number, productivity indicators and milk colour. The study was carried out with White-backed (n = 40), Ash-grey (n = 49), and Holstein (n = 51) cows. Based on lactation number, cows were divided into two groups. Composite milk samples from all quarters of each cow were collected. Two additional milk samples were taken: 1st to assess milk colour and the second to determine the fatty acids profile. Productivity data of cows were provided from the Livestock Information System. Statistical analysis included calculating means and standard deviations or standard errors of the mean. One-way and two-way ANOVA (breed and lactation) were used, and Duncan's test was applied to compare mean values between groups. White-backed cows contained greater proportions of C17:0, C17:1, C18:3 ω3, and C20:0 (
