One Health perspective on mycotoxins in poultry production: Ecology, toxicological effects, occupational and environmental exposure, food safety risks, and mitigation strategies (2020-2025).
Review in Veterinary world, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Mycotoxins produced by toxigenic fungi remain a major challenge in poultry production and global food safety. Contamination of poultry feed with aflatoxins, ochratoxin A, fumonisins, deoxynivalenol, T-2 toxin, zearalenone, and other emerging mycotoxins is frequently reported worldwide, particularly under intensive production systems and changing climatic conditions. This review summarizes current evidence published between 2020 and 2025 on the occurrence, ecological drivers, toxicological effects, environmental and occupational exposure, food safety risks, analytical detection methods, and mitigation strategies of mycotoxins in poultry production within a One Health framework. Recent studies indicate that multi-mycotoxin contamination is common in poultry feeds, and emerging and masked mycotoxins may remain undetected by routine analytical approaches, thereby increasing the risk of underestimating exposure. Mycotoxins adversely affect poultry health through hepatotoxicity, nephrotoxicity, oxidative stress, immunosuppression, intestinal barrier disruption, microbiome dysbiosis, impaired reproductive performance, and reduced productivity. In addition, residues of several mycotoxins have been detected in meat and eggs, raising concerns regarding consumer safety. Airborne fungal spores and contaminated dust in poultry houses also represent important occupational hazards for poultry workers. Advances in analytical technologies, particularly Liquid Chromatography-Tandem Mass Spectrometry, biosensors, molecular diagnostics, and multiplex detection systems, have improved the sensitivity and reliability of mycotoxin monitoring. Various mitigation approaches, including feed hygiene management, adsorbents, probiotics, biological detoxification, and enzymatic degradation, have shown potential to reduce contamination and minimize toxic effects. However, the complete elimination of mycotoxins remains difficult due to the complexity of fungal ecology and the widespread occurrence of co-contamination. Overall, this review highlights the importance of integrated surveillance, improved feed management, advanced detection systems, and coordinated mitigation strategies within a One Health approach to reduce the impact of mycotoxins on poultry health, environmental safety, occupational exposure, and food security.
