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

Rumen microbial fermentation plays a central role in nutrient utilization and milk production in dairy cows. This study evaluated the effects of supplementation with exogenous fibrolytic enzymes, alone or in combination with live yeast on rumen microbiota, fermentation characteristics, nitrogen-related metabolites, and production performance during the transition from outdoor grazing to indoor housing. Thirty Lithuanian Red dairy cows were assigned to control (CTR), enzyme (E), or enzyme plus yeast (YE) treatments across outdoor (OD) and transit (T) periods, while nine cows (three per group) were selected for rumen and microbiota analysis. Rumen bacterial communities were characterized using 16S rRNA gene sequencing, and functional parameters were evaluated using linear mixed-effects models. Supplementation resulted in selective changes in several bacterial genera, including
