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

Insoluble fibre has been shown to be a functional fibre that helps the effective use of nutrients and energy through the gastrointestinal tract, and as such may be added to diets to enhance the growth performance of broilers. This study aimed to investigate the effects of insoluble fibre sources in a reduced protein (RP) diet fed to broilers. At d 10 post-hatch, 672 d-old Ross 308 male birds were assigned to 6 treatments with 8 replicates of 14 birds each. The treatments were a normal protein (NP) diet, a RP diet (-20 g/kg protein), and RP diets formulated with either sugarcane bagasse at 20 g/kg, lignocellulose-based fibre at 10 g/kg, oat hulls at 30 g/kg, or soy hulls at 30 g/kg. The results showed that the reduction in dietary protein decreased feed intake and weight gain, and worsened feed conversion ratio (FCR;
