Effects of nano-zinc oxide supplementation on milk yield, rumen fermentation, nutrient digestibility, and blood indices of high-yielding dairy cows.
Article in Frontiers in veterinary science, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Nanoparticles of zinc oxide (NP- ZnOs) are the most extensively utilized nanoparticles due to the higher surface area, improved bioactivities, and, most importantly, unique chemical stability and simplicity of production. The study aimed to evaluate the effects of NP-ZnOs on the rumen parameters, total-tract nutrient digestibility, and milk performance of Holstein dairy cows. In a completely randomized design, twenty-four dairy cows (650 ± 20 kg of BW; mean ± SD) were allocated to one of four experimental diets, which were as follows: (1) CON + 30 ppm zinc oxide, (2) CON + 30 ppm ZnO-NPs, (3) CON + 60 ppm ZnO-NPs, and (4) CON + 90 ppm ZnO-NPs. Throughout the experiment period, milk yield and milk composition were recorded automatically at each milking time. Body weight (BW) and body condition score (BCS) were assessed throughout the experiment. The components of milk production were unaffected by the supplemental zinc (all
