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 Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) is an important species in aquaculture and an excellent model system for laboratory studies. Functional genetic analysis using this species has been difficult because existing methods for producing transgenics are inefficient. Here we show that the Tol2 transposon system can be used to create transgenic tilapia with high efficiency. We constructed a line that is transgenic for GFP under control of a Xenopus elongation factor 1α (EF1α) promoter. The germline transmission rate of the Tol2 construct to the first generation was about 30%, which is much higher than conventional methods. GFP expression was strong and ubiquitous in the embryos. Application of the Tol2 system for constructing transgenics in tilapia and related species will promote research in many areas, but will be especially useful for studies of evolutionary developmental biology in the cichlid fishes of East Africa.
