Optimizing Poultry Growth and Meat Quality: Effects of Guanidinoacetic Acid Supplementation in Yellow-Feathered Broilers.
Article in Veterinary sciences, 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
This study investigated the effects of dietary guanidinoacetic acid (GAA) supplementation on growth performance, carcass traits, meat quality, intestinal morphology, and cecal microbiota composition in yellow-feathered broilers. A total of 360 one-day-old chicks were randomly assigned to five groups with diets containing 0 (control), 300 mg/kg, 600 mg/kg, 900 mg/kg, and 1200 mg/kg GAA. In the initial growth phase, GAA supplementation increased average daily gain (ADG) by 13.01%, 8.97%, and 12.95% for the 300, 600, and 900 mg/kg groups, respectively, and reduced the feed conversion ratio (FCR), though these changes were not statistically significant (
