1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

In this study, the effects of Pseudostellaria heterophylla polysaccharide (PHP) on the growth, development, and liver metabolism of chicks were investigated by feeding chicks diets. Four hundred 7-d-old Gushi roosters were selected and randomly divided into four groups, labeled A, B, C, and D. Group A was fed the basal diet, and Groups B, C, and D were fed 100, 200, and 400 mg PHP per kilogram of basal diet, respectively. At 14, 21, 28 and 35 d of age, five chicks were randomly selected from each group to collect samples for index detection. The results showed that compared with Group A, there were significant reduction in average daily feed intake (ADFI) and feed-to-weight ratio (F/G) at 14, 21, and 28 d (P < 0.05), significant increase in average daily gain (ADG) at 21, 28 d (P < 0.05), significantly increased levels of total protein (TP), albumin (ALB), insulin (INS), thyroxine (T3), growth hormone (GH) at 14, 28 d (P < 0.05), significantly decreased levels of glucose (GLU), total cholesterol (TC), glucagon (GC), and triglyceride (TG) at 28 d in Group C (P < 0.05). There were significantly increased levels of TP, ALB at 14, 21 d (P < 0.05), significantly increased level of TP at 35 d (P < 0.05), significantly increased level of GH at 28 d (P < 0.05), significantly decreased levels of GLU, GC at 28 d (P < 0.05), significant reduction in F/G at 14, 21 d in Groups B and D (P < 0.05). Based on the above results, the livers from chicks in Groups A and C at 28 d were selected for transcriptome sequencing. The sequencing results showed that significantly differentially expressed genes (SDEGs) were enriched in growth and development, oxidative phosphorylation, the PPAR signaling pathway and the lipid metabolism pathway. All these results revealed that the addition of 200 mg/kg PHP in the diet promoted the growth and development, lipid metabolism and energy metabolism of chicks, inhibit inflammation and tumor development, and improve the function of the liver.
