The Effect of Duck Targeted Lighting Programs on Productivity, Health, and Welfare.

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
This study evaluated the impact of a dynamic LED lighting program specifically tailored to Pekin ducks (DDYNs) compared to a conventional commercial lighting program (CON) on growth performance, health, stress, and fear responses. A total of 960 Pekin ducks were reared across two replicates. Production parameters including body weight, average daily gain, feed intake, and feed conversion ratio were recorded. Health was assessed via tibia breaking strength, bone ash content, complete blood cell count, and villus height to crypt depth ratio. Stress was evaluated through physical asymmetry, heterophil-to-lymphocyte ratio, and plasma corticosterone concentration, while fear was measured using tonic immobility and inversion tests. No significant differences were observed in production or health parameters between treatments (
