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 rumen is a fluidic system in which dissolved gases routinely exceed their Henry's Law equilibrium concentrations and are ultimately eructed, implying the existence of physical degassing processes. However, the mechanisms governing intraruminal degassing are poorly characterized. In this study, a theoretical hypothesis is proposed based on thermodynamic and mechanistic considerations, in which bubble-mediated degassing competes with methanogenesis for dissolved hydrogen (H
