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

Newcastle disease (ND), a highly contagious poultry disease caused by NDV, primarily triggers gastrointestinal lesions. Microecological preparations, novel biological additives for restoring intestinal microbiota diversity, improve nutrient absorption, reinforce intestinal barrier function, and modulate host immune responses. This study investigated the effects of a compound microecological preparation on intestinal pathogenicity in chickens infected with genotype VII Newcastle disease virus (NDV). SPF chickens were allocated to four dietary groups with or without a compound microecological preparation, followed by NDV challenge in two groups. Survival, intestinal morphology, and transcriptomic responses were assessed. The results showed that chickens fed with the compound microecological preparation exhibited improved intestinal development. Following NDV infection, these chickens displayed milder cecal lesions without obvious hemorrhage and a higher survival rate. Furthermore, differential gene transcription analysis revealed that supplementation with the compound microecological preparation regulated the expression of genes associated with metabolic processes, biological regulation, immune response, and growth and development pathways, consistent with the clinical findings. In conclusion, we demonstrated that the compound microecological preparation promotes intestinal development in chickens, delays disease progression following NDV infection, and alleviates pathological damage. Transcriptomic analysis further indicated that the preparation enhances intestinal mucosal immunity by stimulating IgA production and strengthening the immune response against genotype VII NDV. These findings provide a scientific basis for the application of compound microecological preparations in regulating the intestinal immune system and in the prevention of Newcastle disease.
