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

Previous work demonstrates that short -term increases in feed allowances (i.e., "nutritional flushing") can improve ovulation rate. Furthermore, precision livestock farming equipment like electronic sow feeder (ESF) systems are becoming more commonplace to enhance individual sow management in group housing. The objective of this study was to determine the effects of short-term increases in feed allowances on growth and sexual development in previously feed-restricted gilts using an ESF. Prepubertal crossbred gilts were acclimated to an ESF and allocated to one of three feeding regimens, ad libitum (AD, n = 14), restricted (RS, n = 14; 2.72 kg/d), or 2.72 kg/d, until 7 days after puberty (NF, n = 14), followed by ad libitum feeding. Estrus detection and feeding regimens commenced at 160 days of age and continued for 48 days. Reproductive tracts were harvested between 8 and 11 days after second estrus. Average daily gain was improved in NF gilts compared to RS gilts (
