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

In mammals, small RNAs enclosed in exosomes have been identified as appropriate signatures for disease diagnosis. However, there is limited information on exosomes derived from seminal plasma, and few studies have reported analyzed the composition of exosomes and enclosed small RNAs in fish. The half-smooth tongue sole (Cynoglossus semilaevis) is an economically important fish for aquaculture, and it exhibits sexual dimorphism: the female gender show higher growth rates and larger body sizes than males. Standard karyotype analysis and artificial gynogenesis tests have revealed that this species uses heterogametic sex determination (ZW/ZZ), and so-called sex-reversed pseudo-males exist. In this study, we successfully identified exosomes in the seminal plasma of C. semilaevis; to the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of exosomes in fish seminal plasma. Analysis of the nucleotide composition showed that miRNAs were dominant in the exosomes, and the miRNAs were sequenced and compared to identify signature miRNAs as sexual biomarkers. Moreover, target genes of the signature miRNAs were predicted by sequence matching and annotation. Finally, four miRNAs (dre-miR-141-3P, dre-miR-10d-5p, ssa-miR-27b-3p, and ssa-miR-23a-3p) with significant differential expression in the males and pseudo-males were selected from the signature candidate miRNAs as markers for sex identification, and their expression profiles were verified using real-time quantitative PCR. Our findings could provide an effective detection method for sex differentiation in fish.
