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

Awassi sheep are widely raised in semi-arid regions due to their adaptability to harsh environmental conditions, while the Cukurova Meat Sheep (CMS) breed was developed to improve meat production and carcass characteristics. However, information comparing the growth performance, carcass traits, meat quality, and nutritional composition of these breeds under the same fattening conditions remains limited. The objective of this study was to evaluate and compare growth performance, carcass characteristics, and meat quality parameters in male Awassi and CMS lambs reared under identical feeding and management conditions. The study included 20 single-born male lambs (10 Awassi, 10 CMS) of similar age and live weight. The animals were allocated by breed and randomly assigned to five pens per breed, with two lambs per pen. After a 2-week adaptation period, the lambs were fattened for 10 weeks on an
