Assessment of guanidinoacetic acid (GAA) and a preparation of GAA (Creamino®) as feed additives for chickens for fattening and reared for breeding/laying, weaned piglets and pigs for fattening, for the renewal of their authorisation and its extension of use to suckling piglets (Alzchem Trostberg GmbH).

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
Following a request from the European Commission, EFSA was asked to deliver a scientific opinion on the feed additives guanidinoacetic acid (GAA) and a preparation of GAA (Creamino®) for chickens for fattening and reared for laying and breeding, weaned piglets and pigs for fattening for the renewal of their authorisation and their extension of use in feed for suckling pigs. The additives are already authorised for use in chickens for fattening and reared for laying and breeding, weaned piglets and pigs for fattening. The FEEDAP Panel concludes that the additives remain safe for the target species, consumers and environment and that the extension of the use to suckling piglets would not affect these conclusions. Regarding user safety, the additives were not considered irritant to skin or eyes and were not considered a potential skin sensitiser. There is no need for assessing the efficacy of the additives in the context of the renewal of the authorisation for chickens for fattening, chickens reared for laying and breeding, weaned piglets and pigs for fattening. The Panel concludes that the additives are efficacious in feed for suckling piglets at 600 mg/kg complete feed.
