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

Maternal rejection is an uncommon postpartum behavioral disorder in mares that may compromise colostrum intake, mare-foal successful nursing acceptance, and neonatal survival. This retrospective observational study described the clinical presentation, therapeutic management, and short-term outcome of 27 mares diagnosed with maternal rejection between September 2023 and June 2026 in western Romania. Data regarding breed, parity, parturition, behavioral presentation, treatment, supportive management, time to maternal acceptance, and outcome were extracted from medical records. Associations between categorical variables were evaluated using Fisher's exact test, while differences in time to acceptance were assessed using the Mann-Whitney U test. Primiparous mares represented 59.3% of cases, and obstetrical complications occurred in 48.1%. Aggressive behavior was the predominant presentation. Primiparous mares exhibited aggressive forms of rejection significantly more frequently than multiparous mares (
