On-farm welfare assessment of semi-extensively managed sheep using Animal Welfare Indicators (AWIN) protocol.
Article in Archives animal breeding, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
As in the European Union, new sets of animal welfare standards have been implemented in Türkiye, a candidate country for EU membership. However, there is still a limited amount of data available to form the basis of policy measures aimed at improving the welfare of animals in the extensive and semi-extensive sheep production systems. Türkiye's geographical and climatic characteristics at the crossroads of continents influence semi-extensive sheep production. This study was conducted in 56 commercial sheep farms in the Emirdağ district of Afyonkarahisar Province, Türkiye, to assess sheep welfare and to identify key welfare risks using the animal-based assessment protocol of the Animal Welfare Indicators (AWIN) project. Each farm was visited once, and data on the physical conditions of housing and equipment were obtained by measuring or observing, while data on animal management were obtained by interviewing farmers. A total of 702 sheep were individually assessed on the farms as part of the animal-based sheep assessment using the AWIN protocol. Animal management practices, including providing adequate space per animal (1.7 m
