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

Quantification of neuro-behavioural responses of intact small model organisms has been proposed as a sensitive, sub-lethal alternative to conventional toxicity testing. Such bioassays are characterized by a high physiological and ecological relevance, short response times, increased sensitivity, and non-invasive nature. Despite a significant potential for predictive aquatic toxicology analysis of behavioural traits of micro-invertebrates in microfluidic environment has received little attention. In this work, we demonstrate a new Lab-on-a-Chip technology capable of effectively caging freshwater rotifers
