Housefly larva bioconversion enhances heavy metal stabilization and antibiotic degradation during chicken manure composting.
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. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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 assessed the integration of housefly larva bioconversion with aerobic composting for chicken manure (MC) over a 45-day period (4 days of larval bioconversion + 41 days of aerobic composting) and compared it with direct composting (CK1) and sawdust-amended composting (CK2). Larval activity enhanced moisture reduction and substrate porosity, yielding 6.08% (w/w) maggot protein and reducing nutrient losses of C, N, P, and K by 13.45%, 35.08%, 62.15%, and 70.89%, respectively, relative to CK2. MC treatment accelerated humification, as evidenced by increased aromatic and humic acid content, which immobilized heavy metals, Particularly Zn and Cd via HA-metal complexation. Multivariate analyses (redundancy and CART) identified moisture (< 63 - 74%), composting duration, organic matter, and K⁺ release as principal drivers for heavy metal passivation. In the three treatmengt, degradation of tetracycline antibiotics followed the sequence OTC > CTC > DOX with MC reducing the half-life of CTC to 2.57 days through thermophilic degradation coupled with HA- and K⁺-mediated adsorption and chelation; quinolone antibiotics remained largely recalcitrant. These results demonstrate that MC composting enhances nutrient retention, heavy metal stabilization, and tetracycline removal, thereby improving the agronomic value and environmental safety of chicken manure-derived biofertilizer.
