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

(1) Background: Thermal stress in Guangdong's tropical/subtropical regions significantly compromises yolk quality in Huaixiang chickens. Canthaxanthin (CX), an effective feed additive, has been demonstrated to not only enhance the nutritional composition of egg yolks but also mitigate heat stress. This study systematically evaluates the effects of dietary CX supplementation on egg production rate and yolk nutritional components (e.g., amino acids, lipids, vitamin B2) in Huaixiang hens under both normal and high-temperature environments. (2) Methods: A factorial design was implemented, exposing hens to either thermoneutral (25 ± 2 °C, 65-75% RH) or high-temperature (32 ± 2 °C, 65-75% RH) conditions. Diets were supplemented with graded CX levels (0, 4, 6, 8, or 10 mg/kg) for 9 weeks. Laying performance and yolk nutritional profiles (amino acids, lipids, minerals, vitamin B
