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.
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
Multiple Kudoa spp. (Myxozoa: Myxosporea: Multivalvulida) have been recorded in Japanese parrotfish (Calotomus japonicus) from the Philippine Sea (Northwest Pacific Ocean), off southwestern Japan; Kudoa yasunagai in the brain, and K. igami, K. lateolabracis, and K. thalassomi in the muscles. This study examined eight Philippine Sea Japanese parrotfish samples collected in January and February 2019 and found K. prunusi in the brain (3-57 plasmodia/fish; average 17.9) and K. lateolabracis plasmodia in the trunk muscle of all fish individuals examined. The K. prunusi in this study was characterized by myxospores predominatetly with six shell valves (SVs) and a corresponding number of polar capsules (PCs), contrasting with the original description of the species from farmed Pacific bluefin tuna (Thunnus orientalis) brain that characterized the species as having predominately five SVs/PCs. Molecular-genetic characterization of 18S and 28S ribosomal RNA genes and mitochondrial DNA genes (cytochrome c oxidase subunit 1 and small and large ribosomal RNA subunits) clearly differentiated the K. prunusi isolate from K. yasunagai, commonly characterized by six or seven, but rarely five, SVs/PCs myxospores. The Japanese parrotfish is a new host record for K. prunusi and speculated to be an important reservoir host in its natural waters. Kudoa lateolabracis myxospores isolated from pseudocysts in the myofiber were morphologically and phylogenetically close to a clade of the Kudoa spp. that exhibit cruciform myxospores similar to K. thyrsites. This study is the first to sequence a mitochondrial DNA of small and large subunit ribosomal RNA of K. lateolabracis.
