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: This study aimed to investigate the impacts of gestation diets supplemented with functional fiber on performance and gut microbiome of sows. Methods: A total of 1,000 healthy sows of comparable body weight (DanBred Landrace × DanBred Yorkshire, parities 1-2) were selected and randomly assigned to two dietary treatment groups after artificial insemination: a control group (CON, composed of beet pulp and barley as fiber sources) and a dietary fiber group [DF, supplemented with 1% functional fiber, consisted of 85.7% resistant starch (Hangzhou, China) and 14.3% guar gum (Yunzhou, China)]. Results: DF treatment increased the numbers of total born, healthy piglets and litter birth weight ( Conclusion: The abundance of
