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

The Abruzzo (AB) donkey is a mountain-adapted Italian population listed as a genetic resource at risk of extinction (census ≈ 600 animals; no studbook). We aimed to provide the first comprehensive morphometric description of the breed and to compare it with the Martina Franca (MF) donkey, its main progenitor. Sixty-nine adult donkeys (56 females, 13 males) from six farms were measured in 2024. Twenty-three linear traits plus body weight and body condition score were recorded three times by a single operator. Descriptive statistics, Welch's
