Strategic technologies to improve phytogenic feed additive efficacy in pigs and poultry.
Review in Animal nutrition (Zhongguo xu mu shou yi xue hui), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Phytogenic feed additives (PFA) are a diverse group of plant-derived materials that have gained considerable interest and use over the last few years in the food and agriculture industry. This is due to the banning of the use of antibiotic growth promoters, as well as an abundance of natural compounds with several perceived beneficial properties. PFA boast a wide range of physiology influencing properties including growth enhancement, stimulating feed intake, appetite and endogenous secretions, antiviral, antimicrobial, antioxidant, and immunomodulatory activities. However, despite the demonstrated potential of PFA and their phytochemical constituents in vitro, several technical limitations restrict their use and commercialisation in monogastric diets. Strategies to improve the bioavailability of phytic acid in pig and poultry diets are described, including encapsulation, feed enzymes, fermentation, cocktails and blends of phytogenics, blending PFA with organic acids and feed enzyme inclusion. The objective of this review article is to complement the body of knowledge considering new scientific evidence. In addition, the review describes some scientific techniques developed to improve the bioaccessibility and bioavailability and facilitate the application of PFA in pig and poultry nutrition.
