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

Healthy meat quality is an important guarantee for food safety. This study evaluated the addition of dandelion meal to the diet to investigate its effects on growth performance, carcass traits, antioxidant capacity, immune performance, and intestinal flora of Hycole meat rabbits. In the experiment, we assessed changes in meat quality, immune markers, and gut flora in rabbits by ELISA, serological assays, and 16S rRNA sequencing. The results showed that the addition of 1.5% and 2% dandelion to the diet significantly increased the daily weight gain of meat rabbits and reduced the feed-to-weight ratio (
