Identifying the shortfalls of crude protein-reduced, wheat-based broiler diets.
Review in Animal nutrition (Zhongguo xu mu shou yi xue hui), 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 papers.
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 objective of this review is to identify the shortfalls of wheat-based, crude protein (CP)-reduced diets for broiler chickens as wheat is inferior to maize in this context but to inconsistent extents. Inherent factors in wheat may be compromising gut integrity; these include soluble non-starch polysaccharides (NSP), amylase trypsin inhibitors (ATI) and gluten. Soluble NSP in wheat induce increased gut viscosities, which can lead to compromised gut integrity, which is not entirely ameliorated by NSP-degrading feed enzymes. Wheat ATI probably compromise gut integrity and may also have the capacity to increase endogenous amino acid flows and decrease apparent starch and protein digestibilities. Gluten inclusions of 20 g/kg in a maize-soy diet depressed weight gain and feed intake and higher gluten inclusions have been shown to activate inflammatory cytokine-related genes in broiler chickens. Further research is required, perhaps particularly in relation to wheat ATI. The protein content of wheat is typically higher than maize; importantly, this results in higher inclusions of non-bound amino acids in CP-reduced broiler diets. These higher inclusions could trigger post-enteral amino acid imbalances, leading to the deamination of surplus amino acids and the generation of ammonia (NH
