Enhancing Immunity and Gut Microbiota Balance with Black Soldier Fly Larvae (BSFL) Meal: A Sustainable Feed Ingredient That Maintains Growth Performance in Pekin Ducks.

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
The effects of substituting soybean meal with black soldier fly larvae (BSFL) meal on the growth performance, immunological response, intestinal morphology, and gut microbiota of Pekin ducks were assessed. A total of 150 one-day-old Pekin ducks were randomly allocated to three isonitrogenous and isocaloric diets: a control diet (0% BSFL), and diets including 10% or 30% BSFL meal (T10 and T30, respectively). Over 42 days, growth metrics, organ indices, serum and jejunal immune parameters, intestinal morphology, and caecal microbiota composition were evaluated. Ducks fed BSFL-containing diets exhibited a significant increase in spleen index compared to the control group (0.06% ± 0.02% for T10 and T30 vs. 0.05% ± 0.01% for control,
