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 detrimental effects of deoxynivalenol (DON) on broiler chickens are well documented; however, studies on laying hens fed diets naturally contaminated with this mycotoxin remain limited. To evaluate the impact of short-term DON exposure, 600 56-week-old Dekalb White laying hens were fed either a marginally contaminated control diet (CON) or a diet containing 2.45 mg/kg DON for 16 weeks. Production performance was impaired by DON as early as 8 weeks of exposure. Although no changes were observed in the physical characteristics of the eggshells, mRNA expression analyses revealed disruptions in calcium and phosphorus metabolism. Despite similar egg production between treatments, DON exposure led to degeneration of primordial, primary, and large white follicles. Metabolomic analysis of the excreta indicated altered lipid metabolism, suggestive of intestinal inflammation, along with increased hydrogen sulphide (H
