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

Neoparamoeba perurans, the aetiological agent of amoebic gill disease, remains a persistent threat to Atlantic salmon mariculture operations worldwide. Innovation in methods of AGD control is required yet constrained by a limited understanding of the mechanisms of amoebic gill disease pathogenesis. In the current study, a comparative transcriptome analysis of two N. perurans isolates of contrasting virulence phenotypes is presented using gill-associated, virulent (wild type) isolates, and in vitro cultured, avirulent (clonal) isolates. Differential gene expression analysis identified a total of 21,198 differentially expressed genes between the wild type and clonal isolates, with 5674 of these genes upregulated in wild type N. perurans. Gene set enrichment analysis predicted gene sets enriched in the wild type isolates including, although not limited to, cortical actin cytoskeleton, pseudopodia, phagocytosis, macropinocytic cup, and fatty acid beta-oxidation. Combined, the results from these analyses suggest that upregulated gene expression associated with lipid metabolism, oxidative stress response, protease activity, and cytoskeleton reorganisation is linked to pathogenicity in wild type N. perurans. These findings provide a foundation for future AGD research and the development of novel therapeutic and prophylactic AGD control measures for commercial aquaculture.
