Safety, efficacy, gastrointestinal tolerance, and digestibility of brewed chicken protein in healthy adult dogs.
Article in Frontiers in veterinary science, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Introduction: Producing enough protein continues to be a challenge, but alternatives may provide economic and ecological relief. Sufficient testing is necessary to confirm safety and evaluate nutritional value. Our objective was to evaluate the safety, efficacy, gastrointestinal tolerance, and apparent total tract digestibility (ATTD) of brewed chicken protein (BCP; Methods: Thirty-two healthy adult dogs (BW = 9.68 ± 1.18 kg; age = 4.16 ± 1.85 yr) were used in a completely randomized design ( Results: Consumption of BCP did not affect food intake, BW, physical parameters, serum chemistry, hematology, and urinalysis. The dry matter, organic matter, and crude protein ATTD were greater ( Conclusion: These results indicate that the BCP ingredient tested is an effective source of protein that is safe for use in adult dog foods at an inclusion level of up to 40%. No detrimental effects were observed, and notable changes to nutrient digestibility and fecal characteristics, metabolites, and microbiota populations suggest potential benefits on gastrointestinal health.
