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

As demand for local quality products continues to grow, new ways of adding value to sheep meat are being explored. In this connection, cull ewe meat could be an interesting alternative to traditional products. This study aims to promote the use of cull ewes' meat in traditional meat products by evaluating the influence of age and breed on meat quality through a two-part approach. In the first part, the effects of age and breed were assessed on raw meat, while in the second part, the same parameters were investigated in traditional dried meat product "kaddid". Two Tunisian sheep breeds, Noire de Thibar (NT) and Barbarine (BR), were examined at two age groups (3-month-old lambs and 5-year-old adults). Quality parameters, i.e. tocopherols, intramuscular fat (IMF) content, lipid peroxidation (TBARS), and fatty acid profile, were analysed for raw meat and kaddid samples. In raw meat, both breed and age factors significantly affected the
