A flow-through imaging system for automated measurement of ichthyoplankton.
Article in MethodsX, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Microscopic imaging and morphometric measurement of fish embryos and larvae is essential in environmental monitoring of fish populations and to evaluate larvae development in aquaculture. Traditional microscopy methods require time-consuming, repetitive work by human experts. We present a method for fast imaging and analysis of millimetre-scale ichthyoplankton suspended in seawater. Our system can be easily built from common and off-the-shelf components and uses open-source software for image capture and analysis. Our system obtains images of similar quality to traditional microscopy, and biological measurements comparable to those by human experts, with minimal human interaction. This saves time and effort, while increasing the size of data sets obtained. We demonstrate our approach with cod eggs and larvae, and present results showing biologically relevant endpoints including egg diameter, larval standard length, yolk volume and eye diameter, with comparison to similar measurements reported in the literature. • High throughput, microscope-scale imaging of fish eggs and larvae • Automated measurement of biologically relevant endpoints • Easily built from off-the-shelf components and open-source software.
