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 current study aimed to estimate the standardized ileal digestible (SID) calcium (Ca) and phosphorus (P) requirements of broiler chickens based on response surface methodology (RSM). Nine experimental diets were formulated with different SID Ca and P concentrations (2.80 and 5.50, 3.44 and 4.44, 3.44 and 6.56, 5.00 and 7.00, 5.00 and 5.50, 5.00 and 4.00, 6.56 and 4.44, 6.56 and 6.56, and 7.20 and 5.50 g/kg, respectively). A total of 480 10-day-old Ross 308 male broilers were weighed and randomly assigned to nine treatments based on body weight. Each treatment had five replicates, except for the central treatment (5.00 g/kg Ca and 5.50 g/kg P), which had eight replicates with 10 birds per pen. On day 21, body weight and feed leftovers were recorded to calculate body weight gain (BWG) and the gain-to-feed ratio (G:F). Left tibia bones were also collected for compositional analysis and bone mineral density (BMD) assessment. Response surface analysis revealed significant quadratic models for all criteria. The maximum BWG was estimated at 5.13 and 5.74 g/kg for SID Ca and P, respectively. The maximum G:F was observed when 6.41 and 7.00 g/kg of SID Ca and P were used, respectively. Multi-objective optimization analysis demonstrated that 6.02 g/kg of SID Ca and 6.61 g/kg of SID P were required to achieve both optimal BWG and G:F. Furthermore, the ideal SID Ca and P concentrations for optimal tibia ash, tibia Ca, tibia P, and BMD were estimated at 7.20 and 7.00 g/kg, 5.75 and 5.87 g/kg, 7.20 and 7.00 g/kg, and 7.20 and 6.96 g/kg, respectively. Multi-objective optimization indicated that 6.50 and 6.83 g/kg of SID Ca and P, respectively, are required to achieve optimal growth performance and bone mineralization. This study's findings suggest that RSM is a feasible and effective approach to determining the optimal SID Ca and P requirements of broiler chickens, as it efficiently evaluates multiple factors while considering several response criteria.
