Trials for reducing the dangerous effect on poultry fed on aflatoxin contaminated ration using nano curcumin.
Article in BMC veterinary research, 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
backgroundAflatoxin has a negative impact on the health of both humans and animals. One of the reasons for financial losses in the chicken sector is aflatoxicosis. In chickens, aflatoxicosis results in lowered growth rates and egg production, increased mortality, and diseases susceptibility. The current investigation sought to determine the mould's prevalence at the Giza and Assiut Governorates. Then, the isolated toxigenic strain was used to obtain aflatoxin B1, which used to evaluate the dietary influence of curcumin and nano curcumin on growth performance, carcass traits, biochemical, aflatoxin residue, and pathological lesion of liver, spleen, and intestine in Cobb broiler chickens. 120 hatched chicks were divided into 4 group. The groups were control fed basal diet without additives, Afl group fed diet contaminated with aflatoxin, Afl + Cu group fed diet contaminated with aflatoxin and curcumin as a feed additive (7 g curcumin/kg diet), and Afl + Nano-Cu group feed diet contaminated with aflatoxin and nano curcumin as a feed additive (400 mg nano curcumin/kg diet).
resultsThe results indicated that curcumin better than nano curcumin in ameliorating the deleterious effects of aflatoxin that appeared in improving the body weight gain, liver function, and pathological condition of liver, spleen, and intestine than nano curcumin fed group.
conclusionThe current study offers an experimental scientific foundation for the use of curcumin as a medicinal medication or supplement in animal husbandry practices.
