Systematic Evaluation of the Application of Zebrafish in Toxicology (SEAZIT): Developing a Data Analysis Pipeline for the Assessment of Developmental Toxicity with an Interlaboratory Study.
Article in Toxics, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
The embryonic zebrafish is a useful vertebrate model for assessing the effects of substances on growth and development. However, cross-laboratory developmental toxicity outcomes can vary and reported developmental defects in zebrafish may not be directly comparable between laboratories. To address these limitations for gaining broader adoption of the zebrafish model for toxicological screening, we established the Systematic Evaluation of the Application of Zebrafish in Toxicology (SEAZIT) program to investigate how experimental protocol differences can influence chemical-mediated effects on developmental toxicity (i.e., mortality and the incidence of altered phenotypes). As part of SEAZIT, three laboratories were provided a common and blinded dataset (42 substances) to evaluate substance-mediated effects on developmental toxicity in the embryonic zebrafish model. To facilitate cross-laboratory comparisons, all the raw experimental data were collected, stored in a relational database, and analyzed with a uniform data analysis pipeline. Due to variances in laboratory-specific terminology for altered phenotypes, we utilized ontology terms available from the Ontology Lookup Service (OLS) for Zebrafish Phenotype to enable additional cross-laboratory comparisons. In this manuscript, we utilized data from the first phase of screening (dose range finding, DRF) to highlight the methodology associated with the development of the database and data analysis pipeline, as well as zebrafish phenotype ontology mapping.
