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

Zebrafish (Danio rerio) are widely used as an experimental model for a wide range of retinal diseases. Previously, optical coherence tomography (OCT) was introduced for quantitative analysis of the zebrafish cone photoreceptor cell mosaic; however no data exists on the intersession reproducibility or intrasession repeatability of such measurements. We imaged 14 wild-type (WT) fish three times each, with 48 h between each time point. En face images of the UV cone mosaic were generated from the OCT volume scans at each time point. These images were then aligned and the overlapping area cropped for analysis. Using a semiautomated cone-counting algorithm, a single observer identified each cone to calculate the cone density for every image, counting each image twice (84 total counts). The OCT cone density measurements were found to have an intersession reproducibility of 0.9988 (95% CI = 0.9978-0.9999) and an intrasession repeatability of 136.0 ± 10.5 cones/mm
