1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

This study aimed to enhance meat quality and intestinal health of white-feathered broilers by utilizing methyl salicylate (MS), a fragrant plant-derived essential oil, for its anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, and antiplatelet properties. Specifically, we investigated the effects of dietary MS supplementation on the growth performance, carcass characteristics, intestinal morphology, and blood biochemistry and breast meat quality. A total of 270 one-day-old white-feather broilers were randomly assigned to three dietary treatments: a basal diet (CON), a basal diet supplemented with methyl salicylate at a low dosage of 0.25 g/kg (MSL), or at high dosage of 0.5 g/kg (MSH). Dietary MS treatment did not significantly affect the growth performance of broilers. However, dietary methyl salicylate supplementation significantly increased the blood levels of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), total cholesterol (Tchol), and total antioxidant capacity (T-AOC) (
