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

Deltamethrin pesticide and copper have intensively been used in agriculture and industrial activities and can finally reach the marine ecosystem at high concentrations affecting the health of organisms. In this study, we assessed under laboratory conditions the toxic interactions between deltamethrin and copper and their effects on the fertility rate, cell mitotic division rate, and embryo developmental events of the sea urchin (Paracentrotus lividus). The exposure of sperm to increasing concentrations of deltamethrin (6.10(-5) and 6.10(-2) μg/L) and copper (50 and 100 μg/L) or to their mixture (6.10(-5) μg/L of deltamethrin and 50 μg/L of CuSO4) caused a significant alteration on the fertilizing capability of spermatozoids. Concentration-dependent toxic effects on the early cleavage in P. lividus were observed in groups treated with copper, deltamethrin, and their mixture. The kinetics of early divisions was accelerated and the average size of pluteus larvae was decreased under pollutant treatments. Several developmental anomalies were identified in pluteus, including crossed skeletal tips at the hood apex, joined or atrophied arms, and alteration of general larva shape. In conclusion, the sea urchin represents a suitable and sensitive model for testing the toxicity and the effects of deltamethrin pesticide and copper in sea water. In addition, the sensitivity of various end points to studied contaminants, proved their utility in the infield biomonitoring studies.
