The age-related metabolizable energy of cereal grains, oilseed meals, corn gluten meals, and feather meals for broilers.
Article in Journal of animal science, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
A 2 × 3 factorial arrangement of treatments with two ages of broilers (11 to 14 or 25 to 28 d of age) and three samples of feed ingredients was utilized to compare metabolizable energy (ME) and ratio of ME to gross energy (GE) in each group of three cereal grains (CG, including one corn, two wheat flour), three oilseed meals (OM, including one soybean meal, one peanut meal, and one cottonseed meal), three corn gluten meals (CGM A, B, and C), and three feather meals (FM A, B, and C). Each treatment contained six replicates of four Arbor Acre male broilers in energy balance experiments. Trends toward interactions between age and source of CG were observed on the ME and ME/GE of CG (0.05 <P < 0.10). The ME and ME/GE in corn were greater for broilers from 25 to 28 than for 11 to 14 d of age (P < 0.05). However, the ME and ME/GE in wheat flour A and B were not affected by the age of the broilers. The ME and ME/GE of OM were not affected by the age of broilers but differed across sources (P < 0.01). Conversely, the ME and ME/GE of FM were not different across sources of FM, but the ME and ME/GE of FM were less for broilers from 11 to 14 compared to 25 to 28 d of age (P < 0.01). Significant interactions between age and sources of CGM affected the ME and ME/GE of CGM (P < 0.05). The ME and ME/GE of CGM A were greater than CGM B (P < 0.05) when fed to broilers from 25 to 28 d of age but there was no effect from 11 to 14 d of age. The ME and ME/GE of CGM were less in broilers from 11 to 14 compared to 25 to 28 d of age (P < 0.05). These results indicate that the energy value of wheat flour and OM are similar regardless of age, but the ME in starter diets with corn, CGM, and FM may be overestimated if the ME values are obtained from growing broilers.
