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

The present study describes Henneguya lacustris n. sp. parasitizing Astyanax lacustris (Lütken 1875), from the Tietê River, State of São Paulo, Brazil, through morphological and molecular analysis. Myxospores of the parasites were found in the gills of A. lacustris with 13% prevalence of infection. The myxospores were oval and presented as measures (mean ± standard deviation): total length 18.3 ± 2.2 μm, body length 10.4 ± 1.6 μm, body width 4.9 ± 0.9 μm, tail length 7.2 ± 2.5 μm. The polar capsule was 4.8 ± 0.3 μm long and 1.5 ± 0.2 μm wide. The polar tubules, present inside the polar capsules, had 6 to 7 turns. The ultrastructural analysis allowed the observation of the asynchronous development of the myxospores. Phylogenetic analysis showed H. lacustris n. sp. as a sister species of H. chydadea Barassa and Cordeiro 2003 in a subclade formed by species that parasitize the gills of Characiform fish from Brazil. Using molecular and morphological characterization, this parasite was identified as a new species of the genus Henneguya Thélohan 1892.
