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

Introduction: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of compound yeast culture on production performance, antioxidant function, and inflammatory factors in Hu sheep. Methods: A total of 180 45-day-old healthy Hu sheep were randomly divided into two groups. The control group was fed a basal diet, and the experimental group was supplemented with 50 g/kg compound yeast culture during the conservation period (1-30 days) and 60 g/kg during the fattening period (31-117 days). The experiment lasted 124 days, with a pre-feeding period of 7 days and a formal period of 117 days. Daily feed intake was recorded, and the animals were weighed before morning feeding on days 1, 36, 67, 97, and 117 of the experiment and slaughtered on the 117th day. At the same time, non-anticoagulant blood was collected before morning feeding on days 1, 30, 60, and 90, and serum antioxidant indices and serum inflammatory factors were measured. Results: The results showed that the average daily gain of Hu sheep in the experimental group increased by 38 g compared to that in the control group, which increased by 13.4% ( Discussion: The above results showed that compound yeast culture significantly increased Hu sheep's feed intake, daily gain, and economic benefit, and significantly reduced the feed-to-weight ratio, improved the antioxidant capacity, improved the immune function, and alleviated the effect of stress on Hu sheep.
