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

The objective was to evaluate the influence of 2 amino acid (AA)-deficient diets on Histomonas meleagridis horizontal transmission and disease progression in turkey poults reared in battery cages. On day-of-hatch (d0), turkey poults were weighed, randomized, and assigned to 2 treatment groups (10 cages/group). From d0-6, all turkeys were fed an unmedicated, nutrient-adequate, corn and soybean meal (SBM) turkey starter diet. From d6-33, turkeys were fed 1 of 2 unmedicated amino acid-deficient diets: 1) corn-SBM-based or 2) corn-SBM-wheat middlings (WM)-based. Diets were formulated to be isocaloric and contain the same concentrations of total Ca, non-phytate P, and digestible AA. A seeder challenge model was utilized to replicate transmission of H. meleagridis in battery cages. On d13, all poults were weighed and 12 poults/group were orally gavaged with 8.32mg/kg (1mL) fluorescein isothiocyanate dextran to assess intestinal permeability. Additionally, 2/8 poults/cage were randomly selected and challenged with 1 × 10
