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

Xinjiang is rich in high quality licorice resources. However, as a relatively new production area, the licorice resources have not been fully utilized, resulting in a certain degree of waste. To enhance the efficient use of Xinjiang licorice and explore its potential applications in veterinary medicine, this study systematically investigated the growth-promoting effects and gastrointestinal protective properties of Xinjiang licorice extract (XLE) in broiler chickens. A total of 540 one-d-old broilers (with an initial average body weight of 44.71 ± 0.40 g) were randomly assigned to five groups receiving XLE supplementation at graded levels (0, 500, 1000, 2000, and 4000 mg/kg). Each group had 6 replicates, with 18 chickens per replicate. The entire experimental period was 42 d. The findings indicated that the diet containing 1000 mg/kg XLE significantly improved the average daily weight gain (ADG) and decreased the feed conversion ratio (F:G) compared to the control group (
