Nutritional assessment of pork versus chicken as primary protein sources in canine diets.
Article in Journal of animal science and technology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. 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
The protein content of pet food affects its metabolizable energy content and palatability. Although pork is a high-quality protein source, it is not commonly used in pet food due to the lack of verification of its potential as a primary protein source. Hence, in this study, the potential of pork as a protein source in pet food was verified through digestibility testing involving beagle dogs. A pork-based diet made from pork hind legs and a chicken-based diet were provided to 12 beagle dogs. The palatability and digestibility of nutrients of the pork-based diet were compared with those of the chicken-based diet. The results showed that the palatability and apparent total tract digestibility of nutrients (dry matters, crude fat, crude ash, nitrogen-free extract, and amino acids) of the pork-based diet were similar to those of the chicken-based diet. This study suggests that pork hind legs can be used as a protein source in dog food.
