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

This study investigated the influence of age, body weight, and backfat thickness at puberty and first insemination on the reproductive performance and retention rate across multiple parities in replacement gilts. A total of 3025 DanBred gilts were classified according to these factors. Their reproductive performance and survival were monitored up to the fifth parity. The estrus detection rate was 88.36%, and the success rate of insemination was 87.63%. Retention rates from the first to the fifth parity were 85.10%, 73.82%, 59.37%, 47.42%, and 36.36%, respectively. Multiple regression analysis further revealed that age at puberty was negatively associated with total born, born alive, healthy piglets, and weaned piglets across five parities (
