Effects of folic acid on body folate status, ovarian function, and organ indexes of offspring during embryonic stage.
Article in Frontiers in veterinary science, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
This experiment aimed to investigate the effect of dietary folic acid supplementation on maternal folate status and ovarian function in female broiler breeders. Fifty 30-week-old Arbor Acres female broiler breeders were randomly divided into two groups (5 pens/group, 5 hens/pen) after 2 weeks of pre-feeding: the control group (Con, supplementation 0 mg/kg folic acid) and the folic acid group (FA, supplementation 4 mg/kg folic acid). The trial lasted 16 weeks. Folate content in eggs, maternal plasma, and offspring plasma (1-day-old) was measured, alongside expression levels of folate transporters in the ovary, liver, duodenum, and jejunum. Ovarian transcriptome analysis was performed. Results showed that the FA group had significantly increased folate deposition in eggs (
