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 registryThe 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.

6 · The paper itselfAbstract
Aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) contamination of feed used in poultry farming is an important issue in food safety since it compromises animal productivity and leads to the transfer of toxic waste to the food chain. In this sense, as an alternative to conventional mineral adsorbents, in the present study, two sustainable and low-cost biochars were obtained from agro-industrial waste of orange peel (B-OP) and guava leaves (B-GL) to evaluate their efficiency in the removal of AFB1 in an in vitro avian model. Biochars were obtained from pyrolysis and characterized in terms of particle size, surface area, morphology, surface charge, surface chemistry, and pore size. Furthermore, their adsorption capacity was evaluated in an avian in vitro model. The results showed that B-OP had a smaller particle size (55.30 µm), a larger specific surface area (31.50 m
