Comparison between phase feeding and diet blending on growth performance, carcass characteristics, and diet economics of finishing pigs raised in a commercial environment.
Article in Translational animal science, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
A total of 2160 pigs (initially 24.8 ± 0.97 kg) and 962 pigs (initially 26.5 ± 0.37 kg) were used in 2 experiments to compare diet blending with phase feeding on growth performance and profitability. Pigs were housed in mixed-gender pens with 20 and 26 pens per treatment in Exp. 1 and 2, respectively. Pens were assigned to treatment in a randomized complete block design and blocked by initial body weight. In Exp. 1, pens were assigned to treatments arranged in a 2 × 2 factorial comparing feeding strategy (phase feeding vs. diet blending) and standardized ileal digestible
