The Effect of Chelated Trace Mineral Supplementation in the Form of Proteinates on Broiler Performance Parameters and Mineral Excretion: A Meta-Analysis.
Article in Animals : an open access journal from MDPI, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Comprehensive Meta-Analysis (CMA) software, using data from 64 global studies (288 dietary assessments, 194,356 broilers) evaluated the effects of substituting inorganic trace minerals (ITM) with proteinate trace minerals (PTM) in broiler diets at various inclusion levels. Replacing ITM with PTM at equivalent (100%) or reduced (11-80%) levels improved performance metrics, showing reduced total feed intake (FI) (-6 g/bird), lower average daily feed intake (ADFI) (-0.43 g/bird), higher average daily gain (ADG) (+0.36g), greater body weight gain (BWG) (+4.29 g/bird), higher final body weight (BW) (+7.50 g/bird), improved feed conversion ratio (FCR) (-1.26%), and lower mortality (-10.95%), all significant (
