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 monitoring of eggshell quality is important mainly in terms of production economy. Eggshell appearance is one of the most characteristics, influencing the purchasing behavior of consumers. Besides numerous eggshell appearance quality (color, shape, etc.), gloss is an important trait to reflect the eggshell appearance. In this study, 2 experiments were conducted to investigate the effect of breed and age on the gloss of eggshells. In experiment 1, we compared the eggshell gloss of 7 chicken breeds. In experiment 2, 105 Wanan (WA) chickens were raised, and 1 egg was collected from each individual at 26, 32, 40, and 50 wks of age. Eggshell gloss, color (L*, a*, b*), cuticle coverage (ΔE*
