Necropsy-Based Analysis of Causes of Neonatal Mortality in Dairy Calves in Poland.

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.
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
The aim of this study was to identify the main causes of neonatal mortality in dairy calves (0-30 days of age) in Poland and to assess how infectious factors and management practices influenced the pattern of mortality. A retrospective analysis was performed on 498 calves from 312 herds between 2018 and 2024. The protocol included necropsy, enteropathogen diagnostics (PCR and ELISA), and analysis of herd management questionnaires. The leading causes of death were chronic diarrhea (42.4%), acute diarrhea (25.3%), and septicemia (10.8%). Calves that died from septicemia were the youngest (mean age 7.7 days), whereas those that died from chronic diarrhea were the oldest (20.3 days;
