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

Cow-calf separation, a highly controversial practice of the dairy industry, is a frequent topic of criticism amongst citizens. The divergence in opinion that exists between the public and farmers means that the continued occurrence of this practice on dairy farms results in friction in the producer-consumer relationship. Although research into the public's perceptions of this practice is emerging, investigations into how these change using different experimental methods are lacking. This study aimed to understand how welfare message framing influences UK citizens' decision-making on cow-calf separation, using a factorial survey approach. Responses were received from 503 participants. Four of the five welfare domains,
