Goat-derived Lactobacillus amylovorus improved floppy kid syndrome via regulating gut microflora.
Article in BMC veterinary research, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundFloppy Kid Syndrome (FKS) severely restricts goat farming due to high mortality from metabolic disturbances and gut dysbiosis. Here, we aimed to isolate a goat-derived probiotic and evaluate its capacity to restore gut homeostasis in FKSaffected goats.
resultsLactobacillus amylovorus isolates was obtained via selective colony morphology, Gramstain and catalase testing, and confirmed by 16 S rRNA sequencing (≥ 98% identity). The isolate survived at pH 2.0 (72%) and pH 3.0 (85%), tolerated 0.3% bile salts (survival > 10%), and retained > 40% viability after 60 s at 60 °C. In disk diffusion assays, inhibition zones averaged 16 mm against Escherichia coli and 12 mm against Staphylococcus aureus. In FKSaffected goats receiving 1 × 10
conclusionsGoat-derived L. amylovorus displays robust acid, bile and heat tolerance, inhibits key pathogens, and effectively regulates gut microbiota in FKSaffected goats. These findings support its promise as a novel probiotic intervention for preventing and treating Floppy Kid Syndrome.
