Comparative Effects of Processed Soybean Protein Sources on Growth, Serum Immune and Endocrine Profiles, and Colonic Microbiota in Weaned Piglets.

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
Weaning stress and antinutritional components in conventional soybean meal may impair intestinal homeostasis and growth in nursery piglets. This study compared five soybean protein sources: conventional soybean meal (SBM), rapidly expanded soybean meal (RSB), fermented soybean meal (FSBM), hydrolyzed soybean protein (HP), and extruded full-fat soybean (ESB). Two concurrent 28-day trials used 120 newly weaned piglets, with 60 piglets per trial allocated to five treatments (six pens per treatment and two piglets per pen): a single-diet trial and a dual-choice feed-preference trial. Growth, feed preference, crude protein digestibility, serum biomarkers, and colonic microbiota were evaluated. HP showed the highest in vitro and apparent crude protein digestibility and increased final body weight and average daily gain relative to SBM and RSB (
