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 systematically compared the effects of dietary supplementation with glutamine (Gln) and its precursors, including glutamic acid (GA) and α-ketoglutarate (AKG), on growth performance, serum antioxidant and immune parameters, and multi-region gastrointestinal microbiota in suckling lambs. Forty healthy suckling Hu lambs with similar body weight (7.37 ± 1.18 kg) and age (7 ± 0.8 d) were selected and randomly allocated into four groups (
