From waste to feed: In vitro assessment of spent silkworm by-products and manure-raised housefly as soybean meal substitutes in ruminant feed.
Article in Scientific reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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 study aimed to evaluate the efficiency of utilizing insects-spent silkworm pupae, either fed naturally on mulberry leaves (SW-N) or on an artificial diet (SW-A), as well as housefly larvae (HF-L) and pupae (HF-P) reared on swine manure-as alternative feeds to replace soybean meal in ruminant diet (60% grass: 40% soybean meal) at inclusion levels of 5%, 10%, 20%, and 40%. This study assessed their nutritional value and investigated their effects on nutrient digestibility, rumen fermentation profile, and methane (CH
