A Narrative Review of Ginkgo Biloba Extract: Biological Function, Molecular Mechanisms, and Applications in Animal Production.
Review in Antioxidants (Basel, Switzerland), 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
Ginkgo biloba extract (GBE), obtained from dried Ginkgo biloba leaves, provides a natural option. GBE supplementation can increase livestock's productivity through various biological functions, such as combating oxidative stress, reducing inflammation, optimizing gut microbiota, detoxifying intestinal toxins, and regulating immune responses. In this review, we utilized keywords such as "Ginkgo biloba extract" or "Ginkgo biloba extract" and "animal production" or "animal nutrition" to gather research on its various biological functions and the underlying mechanisms from databases such as Web of Science and PubMed, up to December 2025. Then, we systematically summarize the main bioactive components of GBE, its beneficial effects in livestock at different life stages and during different production cycles, and the related molecular pathways. Additionally, safety assessments and the potential applications were also discussed. This review highlights that GBE may be an effective plant-derived feed additive with multiple functions and strong potential to improve animal health, production efficiency, and product quality under intensive farming conditions. We hope that this review can stimulate broader discussions and better develop and utilize GBE as a feed additive in animal production.
