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

The conservation of poultry biodiversity is a growing global priority, yet it necessarily relies on the scientific valorization of specific local breeds. This study aimed to characterize the lipid composition and cholesterol content of eggs from three native Sicilian chicken breeds (Cornuta, Valplatani, and Siciliana) reared under semi-extensive conditions, in order to evaluate their nutritional potential and support biodiversity preservation strategies. A total of 170 eggs from 11 farms were analyzed. Fatty acid composition and nutritional indices (atherogenic index, thrombogenic index, n-6/n-3 ratio, HH index) were determined according to ISO and AOAC standards. Results showed that Cornuta eggs exhibited the most favorable lipid profile, with the lowest saturated fatty acid (SFA) content (38.55%), the lowest n-6/n-3 ratio (7.35), and the best values for AI (0.52), TI (1.22), and HH (2.02), compared to Valplatani and Siciliana. Conversely, the lowest cholesterol content was found in Siciliana eggs (1463.58 mg/kg), significantly lower than Cornuta (1789 mg/kg;
