Oxidative stress and plasma ceramides in broiler chickens.
Article in Frontiers in physiology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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 selection for rapid growth in chickens has rendered meat-type (broiler) chickens susceptible to develop metabolic syndrome and thus inflammation. The sphingolipid ceramide has been linked as a marker of oxidative stress in mammals, however, the relationship between sphingolipid ceramide supply and oxidative stress in broiler chickens has not been investigated. Therefore, we employed a lipidomic approach to investigate the changes in circulating sphingolipid ceramides in context of allopurinol-induced oxidative stress in birds. Day zero hatched chicks (n = 60) were equally divided into six groups; an unsupplemented control, an allopurinol group (25 mg/kg body weight), a conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) group where half of the oil used in the control diet was substituted for a CLA oil mixture, a CLA and an allopurinol group utilizing the same dose of CLA and allopurinol, a berberine (BRB) group consisting of berberine supplementation (200 mg/kg feed), and a BRB and allopurinol group, utilizing the same dose of BRB and allopurinol. Conjugated linoleic acid and berberine were utilized to potentially enhance antioxidant activity and suppress the oxidative stress induced by allopurinol treatment. Body weight, plasma uric acid, nonesterified fatty acids (NEFA) and sphingolipid ceramides were quantified. Allopurinol induced an inflammatory state as measured by a significant reduction in plasma uric acid - an antioxidant in birds as well as a metabolic waste product. Results showed that both total and saturated sphingolipid ceramides declined (
