Integrated Serum Metabolome and Gut Microbiome to Decipher Chicken Amino Acid Improvements Induced by Medium-Chain Monoglycerides.
Article in Metabolites, 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
Chicken muscle yield and amino acid composition improvements with medium-chain monoglyceride (MG) supplementation were reported by previous studies, but the underlying mechanism was uncertain. This study aimed to decipher chicken amino acid improvements induced by medium-chain monoglycerides in the views of metabolomics, gene expression, and the gut microbiome. Newly hatched chicks (12,000 chicks) were weighed and randomly divided into two flocks, each with six replicates (1000 chicks per replicate), and fed a basal diet (the control group, CON) or a basal diet enriched with 300 mg/kg MG (the treated group, MG). Results demonstrated that MGs significantly increased the chicken flavor and essential and total amino acids. The serum amino acids and derivatives (betaine, l-leucine, l-glutamine, 1-methylhistide), as well as amino acid metabolism pathways in chickens, were enhanced by MG supplementation. Gene expression analysis exhibited that dietary MGs could improve muscle protein synthesis and cell growth via the mTOR/S6K1 pathway. Dietary MGs enhanced the cecal amino acid metabolism by selectively increasing the proportion of genera
