Comparative Performance Evaluation and Genetic Potential of Frizzle and Deshi Dwarf Chicken Under Intensive Management Condition.
Article in Veterinary medicine and science, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
objectivesThe objectives of this study were to evaluate and compare the phenotypic and both production and reproduction performance of two indigenous chicken genotypes-frizzle and deshi dwarf-reared under intensive management system. The aim of this study was to identify the superior genotypes which are suitable for intensive management rearing system.
methodsThis work was carried out to compare the morphometric characteristics, production and reproductive performance between frizzle and deshi dwarf chickens under intensive management conditions at Sylhet Agricultural University. A total of 62 chickens, 32 frizzle and 30 deshi dwarf chickens, were monitored. Statistical analyses (SAS) were performed to compare the performance between genotypes.
resultsThe mean of beak length, chest girth, keel length, wing length, body length and shank length of frizzle and deshi dwarf were 3.5 ± 0.37 and 2.32 ± 0.38, 26.1 ± 2.8 and 28.55 ± 3.8, 8.26 ± 1.12 and 8.66 ± 0.9, 25.25 + 2.5 and 22.5 ± 2.15, 41.12 ± 4.15 and 30.25 ± 2.6, 6.3 ± 1.03 and 4.75 ± 1.04 cm, respectively. The mean live weights of frizzle and deshi dwarf chickens were 965.35 ± 26.45 and 1073.7 ± 20.46 g at 20 weeks of age, respectively. The average mean of the day-old chick weight and egg weight, age of first laying of frizzle and deshi dwarf chickens were 28.47 ± 0.1 and 30.43 ± 0.16, 39.82 ± 0.12 and 40.60 ± 0.13 g, 23.25 ± 0.21 weeks and 20.95 ± 0.20 weeks, respectively. The average mean of frizzle and deshi dwarf chickens' fertility, and hatchability were 82% and 91%, 78% and 86%. The weight of hens at first egg laying was also positively correlated with their age of both chickens. The study revealed a high positive correlation (p < 0.05) in frizzle chickens between wing length and shank length (0.98) and in deshi dwarf chickens between body length and shank length (0.97). Additionally, strong positive correlations were found between the weights of chickens at 16 and 20 weeks, with correlation values of 0.96 for frizzle and 0.87 for deshi dwarf chickens.
conclusionThese findings are expected to assist in making decision for improving the efficiency and sustainability of both chickens in intensive management systems. Comparatively, deshi dwarf chickens are more promising breed under intensive rearing system.
