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

Light is one of the important environmental factors affecting the growth, reproduction, and performance of poultry. It stimulates retinal photoreceptor cells to form visual imaging, enabling animals to adapt to external environments. Light also regulates non-visual physiological responses such as circadian rhythms, pupillary reflex, sleep regulation, and melatonin secretion. During the incubation, the photoreceptive functions of avian embryo have developed, and light stimulation at this stage affects embryo development and post-hatch performance. This paper mainly reviews the effects of light-emitting diode (LED) light exposure during incubation (light incubation) on embryo development, hatching performance, and post-hatch performance, along with the related mechanisms to provide insights for the research and practical application of light in poultry production.
