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

Lavender essential oil (LEO) was analyzed using gas chromatography coupled with a mass selective detector (GC-MS), detecting linalool and linalyl acetate as its major constituents. The biological activity of the LEO was evaluated in vitro using a normal mouse fibroblast cell line (L929), where it showed no cytotoxic effects. To assess its therapeutic effect in vivo, a broiler chicken model (Ross 308) was employed. Birds were divided into three groups: the control group (C) without any hydrogel supplementation; the H group, supplemented with alginate hydrogel capsules without LEO; and the HE groups, which received hydrogel capsules containing immobilized LEO. Capsules were provided on chick paper for voluntary intake from day 1 to day 10. At the end of the production cycle, the cecum was dissected and preserved for subsequent molecular analyses. Results demonstrated that dietary supplementation with alginate hydrogel containing immobilized LEO (HE group) positively influenced the production parameters and intestinal health in broiler chickens. Dietary supplementation with alginate hydrogel-encapsulated LEO exerts therapeutic effects in broilers.
