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

This study investigated the chemical composition, fermentation dynamics, fatty-acid profile, and polyphenolic evolution of two mixed silages designed to valorize agro-industrial by-products for ruminant feeding. Silages were produced by co-ensiling wheat straw, cheese-whey, and molasses with grape pomace (SIL-1) or olive mill wastewater (SIL-2), and were monitored over a 150-day ensiling period. The two formulations exhibited distinct compositional characteristics and fermentation kinetics. SIL-1 showed higher crude protein content and a more favorable fatty-acid profile, with greater levels of selected long-chain fatty acids, whereas SIL-2 had higher dry matter and structural fiber fractions. Both silages achieved effective fermentation, reaching stable acidic conditions (pH < 4.0), although SIL-1 consistently maintained lower pH and higher buffering capacity. Fermentation end-products differed between silages, with higher concentrations of short-chain fatty acids in SIL-1 and greater lactic acid accumulation in SIL-2, under significant treatment × time interactions. Bioactive compound analysis revealed higher total phenolic content and antioxidant capacity in SIL-1, whereas SIL-2 showed marked degradation of phenolic compounds, including the loss of characteristic secoiridoids. Polyphenolic profiles displayed compound-specific temporal dynamics during ensiling. Overall, both silages were well preserved; however, SIL-1 demonstrated superior nutritional quality and bioactive stability, supporting its potential as a functional feed ingredient for ruminant nutrition.
