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 evaluated the effects of dietary PUFA supplementation on growth performance, serum biochemical indices, rumen morphology, ruminal fermentation, and rumen microbial communities in Hu sheep. Thirty healthy male Hu sheep (80 days old; 18.70 ± 0.72 kg) were randomly assigned to three groups (n = 10/group) and fed a basal diet supplemented with 4% rumen-bypass palmitic acid fat powder (POS), 4% linseed oil (LO; rich in ω-3 PUFA), or 4% sunflower oil (SO; rich in ω-6 PUFA). PUFA supplementation did not affect average daily gain or rumen tissue morphology (
