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 intensification of poultry farming and the numerous accompanying stress factors lead to increased bird mortality and decreased production rates. Therefore, the main goal of this study was to verify the hypothesis that adding various phytobiotic compounds to poultry feed exerts immunomodulatory effects by altering selected cellular and humoral immune parameters, which may have implications for the health and productivity of the birds. The effect of using mixtures of polyphenolic compounds with tannins and essential oils (carvacrol, cinnamaldehyde, capsaicin) in the diet of Ross 308 broiler chickens on production rates and selected parameters of the cellular and humoral immune response was assessed. This goal was achieved by assessing the percentage of cells expressing CD3
