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

Danio rerio, zebrafish, has been widely used as a non-mammalian vertebrate model organism in various studies. The present research describes to develop and characterize a new cell line from a wild strain Indian zebrafish native to Brahmaputra River, Assam, India. The new cell line designated as DRCF was developed from the caudal fin of D. rerio. The cell line was successfully subcultured up to 31 passages. Growth studies revealed that cell growth of DRCF was optimal at 28 °C in L-15 medium supplemented with 20% FBS. Molecular characterization of the DRCF cell line using mitochondrial genes namely cytochrome oxidase subunit I gene (COI) and 16S rRNA authenticated the true origin of the cell line. The chromosome analysis of the DRCF cell line expressed its 50 diploid chromosome number of D. rerio. The immunocytochemical characterization of the cell line exhibited its fibroblastic morphology. The expression of the green fluorescent protein (GFP) following transfection revealed the suitability of the cell line for transfection studies.
