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

Considering the numbers of zebrafish held in the laboratories, it is relevant to develop some tools to monitor the health of the animals, as well as their biotope. Environmental samples can be used to detect aquatic pathogens. Comprehensive health monitoring would thus seek pathogens in three dimensions of the animals and microbes' habitat: the fish, the sludge, and the water. This three-dimensional approach is called the 3D screen and it introduces some complementary tools to routine sentinel screening. For example, sludge and sump swabs analyses allow an efficient detection of pathogens at a low cost and with a fast turnover. These assays are particularly useful in cases of Pseudocapillaria tomentosa infestation or Mycobacterium haemophilum outbreak. Indeed, such a broader choice of diagnostic tests gives flexibility for the veterinarian to investigate Mycobacterium spp. presence in the water systems and fish colonies. Some other robust additional analysis, like the mortality rate monitoring, quickens the decision-making process. The 3D screen describes how this new toolbox can be used efficiently to monitor laboratory fish health.
