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 welfare of pet rabbits is frequently compromised despite increasing recognition of their complex behavioural and physiological needs. Although owner knowledge is considered an important determinant of animal care, the relationship between perceived knowledge and actual husbandry practices remains poorly understood. This study aimed to (i) describe husbandry practices and owner-reported knowledge among pet rabbit owners in Croatia and (ii) assess whether higher perceived knowledge is associated with greater alignment with recommended husbandry practices. Data were collected using an online questionnaire distributed to rabbit owners (
