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
The present study investigated the impact of administering compound probiotics through distinct routes on the growth performance and intestinal health of broiler chickens. A cohort of 400 1-d-old male Arbor Acres (AA) broilers were distributed randomly into five treatment groups, each comprising eight replicate pens with ten broilers per pen. The treatments consisted of: 1) control (CON), a basal diet; 2) chlorotetracycline (CTC), the basal diet supplemented with 80 mg/kg of chlorotetracycline; 3) nosiheptide (NOS), the basal diet enriched with 5 mg/kg of nosiheptide; 4) compound probiotics in feed (CP-FE), the basal diet fortified with 1 g/kg of compound probiotics; 5) compound probiotics in solution (CP-SOL), the basal diet, with 20 g of probiotics per 1000 broilers daily added to the water from d 1 to 21. During the initial phase (d 1 to 21), the CP-FE regimen notably enhanced average daily gain (ADG) and diminished the feed conversion ratio (FCR), whereas the CP-SOL protocol significantly augmented body weight, ADG, and average daily feed intake (ADFI) (
