Eggshell translucency in late-phase laying hens and its effect on egg quality and physiological indicators.
Article in Frontiers in veterinary science, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Eggshell translucency severely affects external egg quality, and variations in the eggshell or eggshell membrane are considered the structural basis of the trait. Research has shown that 1.85% additional mixed fatty acids in the diet would greatly decrease the occurrence of eggshell translucency. Only a few studies have examined the phenotypic regularity of eggshell translucency with the increasing age of hens. Therefore, two strains, 1139 Rhode Island Red-White (
