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

Inulin, a natural dietary fiber, confers multiple physiological benefits. However, the effects of inulin on the liver and intestinal health of broilers remain unclear. The study investigated the effects and mechanisms of inulin supplementation on hepatic and intestinal health of broilers. A total of 192 male broilers (821.15 ± 14.99 g) at 21 d of age were randomly allocated to four treatment groups, comprising eight replicates per group with six broilers each. The dietary treatments included: a control group (CON) receiving a basal diet and three treatment groups fed the basal diet supplemented with 0.5, 1.0, or 2.0 g/kg inulin (designated as INU-0.5, INU-1.0, and INU-2.0, respectively). Results indicated that dietary inulin supplementation elicited a quadratic response in final body weight (FBW,
