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

While dogs' behavioural indicators of psychological stress are widely used, their function as reliable stress markers remains debated. Using the Strange Situation Procedure (SSP) as a social-stress paradigm, we evaluated contextual correlates of dog behaviours to explore their validity as stress indicators. In 64 dogs, behaviours commonly used as stress markers were video-coded and analysed via GLMMs to investigate differences across test episodes and attachment styles (secure, anxious, avoidant), while salivary cortisol, oxytocin, and rectal temperature provided a physiological framework. Episode had significant effects on shaking (
