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

This study investigated the effects of graded dietary barley replacement for corn on growth performance, rumen fermentation, carcass traits, meat quality, fatty acid profiles, and the rumen microbiome in Arbas White Cashmere goats, and further applied untargeted muscle metabolomics to elucidate the metabolic mechanisms underlying meat quality alterations. Growth performance was monitored for all goats (n = 10 per group); rumen fermentation, carcass traits, serum biochemistry and meat quality were determined in six randomly selected goats per group (n = 6); and rumen microbiota profiling and muscle metabolomics were performed on three selected goats per group (n = 3). Partial barley substitution (33% and 67% of starch from barley) significantly improved final body weight and average daily gain (
