1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

Due to the increased restrictions on antibiotic growth promoters (AGPs), natural substitutes such as organic selenium and prebiotics are gaining increased attention to enhance the gut health and performance of broilers. This study aimed at assessing the effects of organic selenium separately and in combination with mannan-oligosaccharides (MOSs) on gut development, immunity, carcass traits and overall growth performance in broiler chickens. For this study, 528-day-old straight-run broiler chicks (Ross-308) were assigned to four dietary treatments (six replicates of 22 birds each), in a completely randomized design under a 2 × 2 factorial layout, including: (1) Se0.2 (0.20 mg/kg organic selenium), (2) Se0.2 + MOS (0.20 mg/kg selenium + 1 g/kg MOS), (3) Se0.4 (0.40 mg/kg selenium) and (4) Se0.4 + MOS (0.40 mg/kg selenium + 1 g/kg MOS). The results showed that the lower level of organic selenium, along with MOS (Se0.2 + MOS), resulted in significantly enhanced (
