Heat-killed
Article in Frontiers in microbiology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Background: At present, Methods: In this study, a total of 480 day-old Arbor acre broiler chicks with an initial body weight of 52.8 ± 1.4 g were used in this study to investigate the effects of dietary supplementation of graded levels of heat-killed Results: Our data indicate that body weight gain, gain to feed ratio, cecal villus height, and cecal villus to crypt ratio dose-dependently improved, while cecal crypt depth dose-dependently reduced, by HKB supplementation. Additionally, dietary supplementation of graded levels of HKB dose-dependently reduced cecal bacteria Chao1 index. Cecal bacteria identified by 16S rRNA and cecal fungus identified by ITS revealed that the supplementation of HKB regulate the composition of bacteria and fungus in cecum. Conclusion: Therefore, dietary supplementation of HKB is an effective measure to improve cecal morphology by regulating cecal bacteria and fungus composition, and therefore improved growth performance.
