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

Stable carbon isotopes are fundamental for dietary and life-history reconstructions across living and fossil mammals. However, commonly used enamel-diet isotopic offsets are primarily derived from large herbivores and rarely account for breastfeeding in developing teeth. We present controlled feeding experiments using mother-pup pairs of four rodent species to quantify dynamic change in the carbon isotope composition of tooth enamel during early development. Breastfeeding induces a
