ResumenThis study aimed to evaluate the effects of dietary supplementation with flavonoids on growth performance, antioxidant status, nutrient digestibility, ruminal fermentation, and meat quality of small ruminants through a meta-analytic approach. The data used in the meta-analysis were extracted from 29 scientific articles identified through systematic searches following the PRISMA methodology. Der-Simonian and Laird, random effects models, were used to assess effect sizes using weighted mean differences. Dietary supplementation with flavonoids increased (P < 0.05) dry matter intake, average daily gain, hot carcass weight, hot carcass yield, Longissimus dorsi muscle area, and backfat thickness. In contrast, the feed conversion ratio decreased (P < 0.05) in response to dietary flavonoid supplementation. Dietary supplementation with flavonoids increased (P < 0.001) the serum concentration of superoxide dismutase, catalase, glutathione peroxidase, and total antioxidant capacity but decreased (P < 0.001) the serum concentration of malondialdehyde (MDA). The digestibility of dry matter, organic matter, crude protein, neutral detergent fiber, and acid detergent fiber increased (P < 0.05) in response to dietary flavonoid supplementation. Dietary supplementation with flavonoids decreased (P < 0.001) the ruminal concentration of ammonia nitrogen and increased (P < 0.001) the ruminal concentration of total volatile fatty acids and acetate. Dietary supplementation with flavonoids decreased (P < 0.001) cooking loss, shear force, and MDA in meat. In conclusion, dietary supplementation with flavonoids can be used as a nutritional strategy to improve growth performance, antioxidant status in blood serum, nutrient digestibility, ruminal fermentation, and meat quality in small ruminants.es_ES
