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

This study aimed to investigate the effects of low-protein (LP) diet with double-low rapeseed meal (DLR) partially replacing soybean meal (SBM) on the growth performance, meat quality, and nitrogen excretion of Cherry Valley ducks. In a randomized complete block design, a total of 504 one-d-old Cherry Valley ducks with consistent health, weight, and genetic background (body weight = 51.80 ± 1.49 g) were randomly assigned to seven groups (six replicates/group, 12 ducks/replicate). The dietary crude protein (CP) level was reduced in 0.5 percentage point increments, with the amino acid and energy balance maintained. The dietary CP levels were 20.01% (CON), 19.51%, 19.01%, 18.51%, 18.01%, 17.51%, and 17.01% (LP1, LP2, LP3, LP4, LP5, and LP6, respectively) for 1 to 14 d of age, 17.50% (CON), 17.00%, 16.50%, 16.00%, 15.50%, 15.00%, and 14.50% (LP1, LP2, LP3, LP4, LP5, and LP6, respectively) for 15 to 42 d of age. The results showed that dietary treatment significantly affected feed conversion ratio (FCR) (
