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

This study was conducted to determine the effects of different energy and protein levels on growth performance, carcass traits, meat quality, and taste scores of Pekin ducks. A total of 1,800 numbers of 15-day-old ducks (10 replicate pens, 60 birds/pen, 819 ± 18 g/duck) were blocked based on body weight (BW) and randomly allotted to three treatments with different metabolizable energy (ME) and crude protein (CP) levels in this 28-day experiment. Dietary treatments were as follows: (1) low energy protein (LEP), 3,150 kcal/kg and 16% for the grower diet and 3,250 kcal/kg and 15% for the finisher diet; (2) medium energy protein (MEP), 3,250 kcal/kg and 16.5% for the grower diet and 3,350 kcal/kg and 15.5% for the finisher diet; (3) high energy protein (HEP), 3,350 kcal/kg and 17% for the grower diet and 3,450 kcal/kg and 16% for the finisher diet. During days 15-28, body weight gain (BWG) in the LEP group was higher (
