Effects of an enzyme blend in diets of different nutrient density fed to nursery pigs.

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
Two 35-d experiments were conducted with four or five pigs per pen and 12 pens per treatment to determine the effects of an enzyme blend, containing carbohydrases and protease, in late nursery pig diets. In Exp. 1, 355 pigs (DNA 241 × 600, initially 13.3 ± 0.23 kg) were used to determine the effects of an enzyme blend in diets of different nutrient density. Pigs were blocked by body weight and allotted to one of six treatments, including 2 corn-soybean meal-based (CS) diets with 0 or 0.01% enzyme blend and four diets containing corn, soybean meal, wheat middlings, and low-oil corn dried distillers grains with solubles (CSBP) with 0, 0.01, 0.02, or 0.03% added enzyme. The CSBP diets were formulated to achieve a 77 kcal/kg reduction in net energy (NE) and a 1% reduction in crude protein (CP) compared to the CS diets. On d 35, fecal samples were collected from 6 pigs per treatment to determine apparent total tract digestibility (ATTD) of dry matter (DM), CP, acid detergent fiber (ADF), and neutral detergent fiber (NDF). The same pigs were euthanized for determination of apparent ileal digestibility (AID) of AA and intestinal morphology. In Exp. 2, 356 pigs (DNA 241 × 600, initially 12.4 ± 0.22 kg) were used to determine the effect of an enzyme blend in diets with reduced nutrient density. The five treatments included a CS diet with no added enzyme blend and 4 CSBP diets with 0, 0.01, 0.02, or 0.03% enzyme. The CSBP diets were formulated to achieve a 159 kcal/kg reduction in NE and a 10% reduction in standardized ileal digestible (SID) Lys compared to the CS diet. On d 35, fecal samples were collected from 12 pigs per treatment to determine ATTD of DM, CP, and NDF. For both experiments, pigs fed CS diets had increased (
