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

Youzhou black goats in mineral-imbalanced pastures exhibited clinical symptoms such as widespread diarrhea and weight loss. To investigate the impact of pasture mineral imbalance on these goats, Zhangjiaping pasture (mineral-imbalanced) and Maoba pasture (in a healthy area) were selected as experimental and control sites, respectively, and the mineral elements in soil and forage were determined. Quantitative analysis revealed significantly lower selenium (Se) levels in both soil and forage at the experimental site compared to controls (P < 0.05). In contrast, sulfur (S) concentrations were elevated exclusively in forage (P < 0.05), with no significant differences observed in soil S content. Twelve healthy male Youzhou black goats (5 months old; body weight 12.61 ± 0.18 kg) were randomly allocated to experimental or control sites (n = 6 per group) and maintained in assigned pastures for a 60-day experimental grazing period.The results showed that all the goats in the experimental group showed clinical symptoms during the grazing period, including diarrhea (5/6), depression (6/6), and unsteadiness (4/6), whereas control animals exhibited no adverse signs. Experimental goats showed significantly lower blood/liver copper (Cu) and Se levels (P < 0.05) and higher S levels (P < 0.05) compared to controls. The results of blood physiological and biochemical indexes showed that the goats in the experimental group had a tendency towards anemia, and their antioxidant capacity and immune capacity were significantly reduced. The results of the liver metabolome showed that multi-element complex stress significantly affected amino acid metabolism and nucleotide metabolism pathways in black goats.
