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

The objective of this study was to investigate the influence of crude protein (CP) levels combined with the supplementation of a microencapsulated phytonutrients pellet made from a mixture of lemongrass and dragon fruit peel (MiEn-LEDRAGON) on gas production, degradability, fermentation characteristics, and microbial diversity using the in vitro gas technique. A 4  × 2 factorial arrangement in a completely randomized design (CRD) was used in this study, with four levels of CP in the concentrate diet (10, 12, 14, and 16% dry matter; DM) combined with two levels of MiEn-LEDRAGON supplementation (0 and 3% in the total DM substrate). The results of this study demonstrated that there were no interaction effects between CP levels and MiEn-LEDRAGON supplementation on gas production, degradability, fermentation characteristics, end-product formation, or microbial dynamics (p > 0.05). Additionally, increasing CP levels in the concentrate diet had no effect on cumulative gas production, gas kinetics, in vitro degradability, volatile fatty acids (VFA), or methane (CH
