Hydrolyzable tannins in local Thai plants: Potential applications as poultry feed supplements: A systematic review.
Review in Veterinary world, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Background and Aim: The global shift toward antibiotic-free poultry production necessitates sustainable alternatives to conventional growth promoters. Hydrolyzable tannins (HTs) from plants have shown antimicrobial, antioxidant, and gut-modulatory effects, making them promising feed additives. However, reliance on imported tannins from temperate species limits access for tropical producers, especially in Thailand. This study aimed to systematically evaluate locally available Thai plant species as alternative sources of HTs for poultry feed, with a focus on their biological activities, economic feasibility, and practical integration potential. Materials and Methods: A systematic literature search (2020-2024) was conducted using PubMed, ScienceDirect, and the Thai citation index. Studies assessing Thai plant-derived HTs and their antimicrobial, antioxidant, and gut health effects were included in the study. A total of 21 studies covering 24 plant species were analyzed. Data extraction included tannin type, target microbes, experimental outcomes, and yield/economic feasibility, assessed through a validated scoring system. Results: Gallic and ellagic acids were the predominant bioactive compounds reported. HT-rich extracts demonstrated strong antimicrobial effects against 19 pathogenic bacterial species and enhanced the growth of beneficial gut microbiota, including Conclusion: Thai HT-rich plants, particularly cassava and Siamese cassia, show strong potential as sustainable feed additives in poultry production. These species offer dual benefits: antimicrobial and gut-modulatory effects and reduced reliance on expensive imported tannins. However, more standardized extraction protocols and large-scale
