Dietary Supplementation of Olive Pomace in Lactating Buffaloes: Effects on Milk and Yogurt Composition and Fatty Acid Profile.
Article in Veterinary medicine and science, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
backgroundBuffalo can efficiently convert fibrous materials into energy and produce milk and meat in harsh conditions that other ruminants cannot survive.
objectivesThis study was conducted to investigate the effect of olive pomace (OP) on the quality of buffalo milk and yogurt and to improve its characteristics for human health.
methodsFifteen lactating buffaloes have been used with an average age of 4 ± 1 years and a weight of 570 ± 40 kg. Treatments of 0%, 7.5%, and 15% olive pomace substituted with wheat flour, which was fed two times for 45 days in a completely randomized design (3 treatments, 5 replicates). Milk from each animal was used to test milk composition and microbial load. The fatty acid profile of milk and yogurt composition of all buffaloes was measured. Data were analyzed by completely randomized design in SAS.
resultsResults showed that milk fat and SNF (solids not fat) increased in olive pomace treatments (p < 0.05), but milk production, protein, and pH were not different (p > 0.05). The acidity, microbial load, Staphylococci, and SNF of yogurt produced from buffalo's milk were not influenced by treatments (p > 0.05). Yogurt fat significantly decreased (p < 0.05) in OP7.5 and significantly increased (p < 0.05) in OP15 buffaloes. Protein concentration in yogurt dropped by olive pomace diets, and coliforms were the highest for OP15 olive pomace (p < 0.05). The concentration of short and medium-chains fatty acids (C4:0, C8:0, C10:0, C12:0), linolenic acid, and conjugated fatty acids (CLA isomers) of buffalo's milk in OP15 is more than in other treatments (p < 0.05). The replacement of olive pomace with wheat flour increased milk production of dairy buffaloes. The concentration of short and medium-chain fatty acids and unsaturated and conjugated fatty acids increased in OP15 buffalo. Furthermore, a lower saturated/unsaturated ratio and atherogenic index suggest an improvement in the nutritional characteristics of milk buffaloes. Therefore, it's recommended in the diet of dairy buffaloes.
conclusionsTherefore, due to the proper price of olive pomace, its replacement with wheat flours up to 15% in lactating buffaloes is recommended. But still, it needs further research to prove olive pomace efficacy on milk and yogurt quality in buffaloes.
