Effect of induced molting on bone remodeling in laying hens.
Article in BMC genomics, 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
backgroundEnhancing bone quality is crucial for the health and productivity of laying hens. Fasting is a known way to cause physiological changes in layer hens, but research on skeletal changes during molting is still limited.
resultsThis study used a fasting-induced model to assess phenotypic changes and systematically investigate bone resorption and remodeling through transcriptomic analysis. During this process, serum phosphorus, ALP, PTH, and E2 levels in the resumption of feeding were significantly higher than in other groups, with BMC in the resumption of feeding also being significantly elevated. Further transcriptome sequencing of the tibia at different periods was conducted, and many differentially expressed genes, such as CCK, SHH, ENDRB, FZD4, AGT, and TRPM1, were identified. Key signaling pathways involved in bone development, such as the Wnt/β-catenin and calcium signaling pathways, were also determined.
conclusionThis adaptive response of fasting followed by refeeding helps improve bone quality in laying hens during the late laying period.
