Whole-genome Metagenomic Sequencing Reveals Gut Microbiota Composition and Function Associated with Differential Growth Performance in Two Chicken Breeds.

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
Growth performance, an important trait in the broiler industry, is defined by both the host genome and gut microbiota. At present, it is not known how gut microbiota contribute to the growth of Dahen broilers, a commercially important breed in China. In this study, we used metagenome sequencing to compare the taxonomic composition and functional implications of cecal microbiota in fast-growing Dahen broilers and slow-growing Tibetan chickens. A total of 2,207,811 unique genes were assembled in the non-redundant set, and 99% of them were taxonomically annotated as having a bacterial origin. The fast-growing group displayed a higher alpha diversity than the slow-growing group in terms of ACE, Chao1, and Good's coverage statistics. The two groups presented also significantly different (
