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

The rate of fat deposition is a critical indicator for assessing the quality of roast squab. Fat deposition in meat pigeons is closely related to their intestinal flora. However, few studies have examined the relationship between gut microbiota structure and fat synthesis in pigeons. This study focused on 28-day-old roast squabs of European meat pigeons and Yuzhong pigeons, which exhibit significant differences in fat synthesis and weight. We analyzed the molecular mechanisms by which the intestinal microbiota of different meat pigeons influences fat deposition. Additionally, we evaluated the effects of intestinal digesta from these pigeons on pigeon milk digestion and absorption using a monogastric animal simulation digestive system. Results indicated that the intestinal microflora structures of European meat pigeons and Yuzhong pigeons were significantly different. In European meat pigeons,
