Impact of Thermal Manipulation of Broiler Eggs on Growth Performance, Splenic Inflammatory Cytokine Levels, and Heat Shock Protein Responses to Post-Hatch Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) Challenge.
Article in Animals : an open access journal from MDPI, 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
Thermal manipulation (TM) during embryogenesis is a promising non-pharmacological strategy to enhance physiological resilience in broiler chickens. This study evaluated the impact of thermal conditioning of fertile eggs on growth performance, inflammatory responses, and molecular stress markers following a post-hatch lipopolysaccharide (LPS) challenge. Fertilized eggs (average weight 62 ± 3 g) were obtained from 35-week-old Indian River broiler breeder hens. A total of 720 eggs were randomly assigned to either the control group (
