Host-specific microbiome-rumination interactions shape methane-yield phenotypes in dairy cattle.
Article in mSphere, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
Enteric methane emissions (EMEs) negatively impact both the environment and livestock efficiency. Given the proposed link between CH IMPORTANCE: Methane emissions from livestock contribute to climate change and reduce animal efficiency. This study reveals that cows with longer rumination times (chewing cud for an extra 94 minutes daily) produce 26% less methane than cows with shorter rumination times. The gut microbiome plays a key role-low-methane cows host microbial communities that produce less methane while efficiently utilizing hydrogen for energy conservation in the rumen. By analyzing rumination sensor data and/or in combination with microbial profiles from rumen or fecal samples, farmers can non-invasively identify and select cows that naturally emit less methane. This scalable, cost-effective strategy offers a practical solution for reducing livestock's environmental footprint while enhancing efficiency and advancing climate-smart agriculture.
