Evaluating Cassava Starch Residue as a Maize Substitute in Broiler Chicken Diets.
Article in Food science & nutrition, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
A total of 360 1-week-old broiler chicks were utilized in a 6-week experimental study designed to evaluate the effects of varying levels of cassava starch residue (CSR) on growth performance, hematological profiles, nutrient digestibility, and carcass quality in broiler chickens. The chicks were raised in floor pens and divided into six dietary treatments, each comprising 60 birds, with five replicates in a completely randomized design. CSR was incorporated into the diet at inclusion levels of 0%, 20%, 30%, 40%, 50%, and 60%, replacing maize. CSR contains lower quantities of anti-nutrients such as phytates, oxalates, tannins, saponins, cyanide, and alkaloids, making it more beneficial for farmers to use it in broiler diets without adverse effects. By Day 49, all CSR treatment groups had significantly lower average daily weight gain and final body weight (
