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 evaluated whether stable first- and last-entry behaviour into the milking parlour is associated with behavioural traits, milk production, udder health, and milk quality in Lacaune dairy ewes. A total of 246 ewes were monitored during lactation, and animals showing highly consistent first- or last-entry behaviour across six observations were selected. The final dataset included 18 first-entry ewes (FG) and 23 last-entry ewes (LG). FG ewes were heavier than LG ewes (62.11 ± 5.25 vs. 56.83 ± 4.94 kg;
