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
Enhancing the immune response through breeding is regarded as an effective strategy for improving animal health, as dairy cattle identified as high immune responders are reported to have a decreased prevalence of economically significant diseases. The identification of differentially expressed genes (DEGs) associated with immune responses might be an effective tool for breeding healthy dairy cattle. In this study, antibody-mediated immune responses (AMIRs) were induced by the immunization of hen egg white lysozyme (HEWL) in six Chinese Holstein dairy bulls divided into high- and low-AMIR groups based on their HEWL antibody level. Then, RNA-seq was applied to explore the transcriptome of peripheral whole blood between the two comparison groups. As a result, several major upregulated and downregulated genes were identified and attributed to the regulation of locomotion, tissue development, immune response, and detoxification. In addition, the result of the KEGG pathway analysis revealed that most DEGs were enriched in pathways related to disease, inflammation, and immune response, including antigen processing and presentation, Staphylococcus aureus infection, intestinal immune network for IgA production, cytokine-cytokine receptor interaction, and complement and coagulation cascades. Moreover, six genes (
