The Antinutritional Factors and Technological Processing of Sorghum and Its Application in Pig Production.
Review in Animals : an open access journal from MDPI, 2025. 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
Sorghum ranks as the fifth largest grain crop globally, and it has similar levels of crude protein and leucine compared to corn, making it a viable substitute for full or partial corn in pig diets. Sorghum is produced around the world like corn, which is the energy source in pig diets. However, sorghum contains antinutritional factors that adversely affect nutrient absorption, energy, and amino acid availability. Additionally, the low content of essential amino acids, such as lysine (Lys) and methionine (Met), limits its feeding value. Consequently, this paper primarily discusses the antinutritional factors present in sorghum and elaborates on methods to enhance the nutritional value of forage sorghum through processes such as crushing, extrusion, and enzymatic hydrolysis. The nutritional value of sorghum could be improved by adding protease, by extrusion, and by reducing the grain size. Furthermore, this paper summarizes the application of sorghum in pig production to enhance the understanding of forage sorghum among feed enterprises and to provide a theoretical reference for the rational formulation of pig diets.
