Soft-Pellet Feed Strategy for Broilers: Effects on Growth Performance and Liver-Intestinal Health.
Article in Animals : an open access journal from MDPI, 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
A total of 288 male Cobb broilers were randomly assigned to four dietary treatments: crumbled-pellet feed (CPF), hard-pellet feed (HPF), standard-nutrient soft-pellet feed (SPF), and low-nutrient SPF, each with eight replicates of nine birds. The 42-day trial was divided into stage 1 (days 1-21) and stage 2 (days 22-42). In stage 1, the broilers fed standard-nutrient SPF showed higher final body weight (FBW) and lower dry matter feed conversion ratio (DMFCR) than those fed CPF (
