The carbon intensity (CI) of co-products fed to beef cattle in the Northern Plains.
Article in Translational animal science, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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 beef production chain accounts for about 40% of world livestock greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, with feed production representing a substantial component of livestock's carbon footprint. Two important components of livestock rations in the United States are co-products from grain processing: soybean meal (SBM) from soybean crushing, and distillers grains and solubles (DGS) from corn ethanol production. In response to interest in low-carbon beef production, this study estimates the likely carbon intensity (CI) scores of these two co-product feeds, using two life-cycle emissions packages available for use by producers and others. For feedstuffs produced in the Northern Plains we find expected CI estimates of 0.196-0.385 kg CO₂e kg
