Pistachio shell powder may be included in diets for weanling pigs without compromising growth performance or blood characteristics.

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
An experiment was conducted to test the hypothesis that pistachio shell powder can be used as a fiber source in diets for weanling pigs without any negative impacts on pig growth performance. A total of 160 newly weaned pigs (initial body weight = 5.23 ± 0.54 kg) were allotted to 4 dietary treatments using a randomized complete block design with initial body weight being the blocking factor. There were 10 replicate pens per treatment. The control diet contained mainly corn and soybean meal and three additional diets were formulated to contain 5.0, 7.5, or 10.0% pistachio shell powder at the expense of corn. Dietary nutrient and energy concentrations were maintained among diets. Average daily gain (
