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 aim of this study was to evaluate two proteases (P1 and P2) on the apparent and standardized ileal digestibility (AID and SID, respectively), of crude protein (CP) and amino acids (AAs) and apparent total tract digestibility (ATTD) of nutrients and gross energy (GE) of corn and soybean meal, with 46% and 48% CP, in pigs by the index method. Ninety crossbred castrated male piglets (13.52 ± 1.96 kg body weight) were fed a nitrogen-free diet, or diets containing corn or soybean meal as the sole sources of CP and AAs, supplemented or not with 0.05% of P1 or 0.01% of P2, an acid protease. Treatment differences were considered statistically significant at
