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

The adoption of cost-effective feeding regimes is essential to maintain the growth and physiological status of lambs after weaning. The economic benefits of an alternative concentrate diet for Omani lambs were also assessed. Twenty male Omani lambs (12.31 ± 3.22 kg; 5 months old) were allocated to a commercial concentrate (control) or formulated concentrate group (n = 10/treatment) for 63 days. The formulated concentrate consisted of date palm fronds (29%), barley (20%), fish meal (12%), date syrup (10%),
