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

objectiveThis study was conducted to evaluate the nutritional value of ten wheat shorts (WS) originating from different regions by determining their standardized ileal digestibility of amino acids (SID AA) in pullets during the brooding (d 28-31) and growing (d 92-95) phases, and to establish SID AA prediction equations based on their chemical composition.

methodsA total of 990 pullets were used, with 594 in the brooding phase and 396 in the growing phase. In each phase, birds were randomly assigned to one of 11 dietary treatments, including one nitrogen-free diet and ten test diets each formulated with an individual WS sample as the sole protein source. All diets contained 0.5% titanium dioxide as an indigestible marker.

resultsSubstantial variation (CV>10%) was observed in ether extract, crude ash, crude fiber, acid detergent fiber (ADF), neutral detergent fiber, and total starch (TS) among the WS samples. During the brooding phase, SID was lowest for cysteine (74.10%) and highest for glutamic acid (90.06%). During the growing phase, cysteine was again lowest (70.33%) and glutamic acid highest (90.22%). Except for tryptophan, the WS source significantly affected SID AA (p<0.05). In the brooding phase, ADF, TS, and gross energy (GE) were identified as significant predictors of SID AA. Similarly, ADF and GE were reliable predictors in the growing phase.

conclusionConsiderable variation was observed in the chemical composition of WS from different origins, and the origin had a significant effect on SID AA. During the brooding phase, the equation with the highest R2 was SID Met = 51.929+1.015TS-0.494NDF (R2 = 0.976; p<0.001). During the growing phase, the equation with the highest R² was SID His = -511.489-2.095ADF+23.722GE+1.652NFE (R² = 0.900; p<0.001).
