Influences of Thermal Stress During Three Weeks Before Market Age on Histology and Expression of Genes Associated With Adipose Infiltration and Inflammation in Commercial Broilers, Native Chickens, and Crossbreeds.

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.
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 objectives of this study were to examine the effects of cyclic thermal stress on histological characteristics of breast muscle and gene expression regarding adipose infiltration and inflammation in breast muscles collected from different breeds of chickens. The birds, from commercial broilers (CB, Ross 308, 3 weeks), native (NT, 100% Thai native Chee, 9 weeks), H75 (crossbred; 75% broiler and 25% NT, 5 weeks), and H50 (crossbred; 50% broiler and 50% NT, 7 weeks), were equally assigned into control or treatment groups. The control samples were reared under a constant temperature of 26 ± 1°C, while the treatment groups were exposed to 35 ± 1°C (6 h per day). After a 20-day thermal challenge, 12 male birds per treatment group were randomly collected for determination of live body weight, breast weight, numbers of growth-related myopathies, and breast meat chemical composition. Histological lesions were evaluated in the pectoralis major muscle immediately collected within 20 min postmortem based on hematoxylin and eosin staining. The results indicated that despite interaction between thermal stress and breed effects, thermal challenge significantly reduced feed intake, live body weight, and breast weight of the birds and increased moisture content in breast meat (
