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
Three experiments were conducted to determine if nitrogen is a limiting factor for growth performance when feeding low protein, amino acid (AA) fortified diets and determine the effects of standardized ileal digestible lysine to crude protein (SID Lys:CP) ratio on growth performance of 11- to 25-kg pigs. In Exp. 1,981 pigs ([Fast Large White × PIC L02] × PIC 800; initially 10.3 ± 0.19 kg) were used in a 21-d study. Diets were corn-soybean meal-based consisting of: 1) a low level of feed-grade AA with a SID Lys:CP ratio of 6.0%; 2) a moderate level of feed-grade AA with a SID Lys:CP ratio of 6.5%; 3) a high level of feed-grade AA with a SID Lys:CP ratio of 7.0%; 4) diet 3 with added diammonium phosphate (DAP) added to achieve a SID Lys:CP ratio of 6.5%; and 5) diet 3 with L-Gly added to achieve a SID Lys:CP ratio of 6.5%. Average daily gain (ADG) was unaffected by dietary treatment but gain:feed ratio (G:F) decreased (linear, P = 0.002; quadratic, P = 0.054) as SID Lys:CP ratio exceeded 6.5%. Adding DAP or L-Gly to the high feed-grade AA diet increased (P ≤ 0.003) G:F compared to pigs fed the high feed-grade AA diet. In Exp. 2, 4,167 pigs (337 × 1050, PIC; initially 13.0 ± 0.27 kg) were used in a 14-d study. Diets were corn-soybean meal-based, and treatments arranged in a 2 × 5 factorial with main effects of SID Lys (1.15 or 1.30%) and SID Lys:CP ratio (6.00, 6.22, 6.46, 6.72, and 7.00%). Overall ADG was unaffected by dietary treatment; however, a SID Lys:CP × SID Lys interaction was observed for G:F (linear, P = 0.012) where increasing SID Lys:CP ratio decreased (linear, P < 0.001) G:F at both SID Lys levels with a more pronounced effect in diets formulated to 1.15% SID Lys. Lastly, Exp. 3 used 5,059 pigs (PIC 800 × Camborough and DNA 600 × 241; initially 11.0 ± 0.90 kg) in an 18-d trial. Treatment diets were arranged in a 2 × 6 factorial with main effects of dried distillers grains with solubles (DDGS; 0 or 15%) and SID Lys:CP ratio (6.01, 6.22, 6.45, 6.70, 6.97, and 7.26%). Overall, ADG was unaffected by dietary treatment, but a SID Lys:CP × DDGS interaction was observed (linear, P < 0.001) where G:F increased then decreased (quadratic, P < 0.001) in diets without DDGS, whereas in the diets with DDGS, G:F decreased (quadratic, P ≤ 0.002) as SID Lys:CP ratio increased above 6.45%. In summary, a SID Lys:CP ratio greater than approximately 6.5% decreased G:F, but adding a protein or non-protein nitrogen source to low protein diets formulated above this ratio improves G:F.
