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 experiment was conducted to investigate the effects of different dietary protein levels and amylose to amylopectin (AM/AP) ratios on the growth performance and muscle development of geese. A total of 240 healthy male Jiangnan White geese (body weight [BW] 2124.8 ± 91.4 g, 35-d-old) were randomly assigned to 4 groups, with 6 replicates per group and 10 birds per replicate. The experimental period was 21 d. The 2 × 2 factorial design included two protein levels (16% and 14%) and two AM/AP ratios (0.34 and 0.44). The 4 groups were: control group, normal protein (16%) with normal AM/AP ratio (0.34) (NPNR); normal protein (16%) with high AM/AP ratio (0.44) (NPHR); low protein (14%) with normal AM/AP ratio (0.34) (LPNR); and low protein (14%) with high AM/AP ratio (0.44) (LPHR). The results showed that compared with normal protein diet, low protein diet increased average daily feed intake (ADFI;
