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

It is of great significance for the aquaculture industry to determine how rearing salinity impacts fish flesh quality. In the present study, largemouth bass was cultured in different salinities (0%, 0.3%, 0.9%) for 10 weeks, and the effect on flesh texture, flavor compounds, taste, and fatty acid composition was evaluated. We show that rearing salinity not only increased flesh water-holding capacity, but also enhanced muscle hardness, chewiness, gumminess, and adhesiveness, which was consistent with the finding in the shear value test. Morphology analysis further revealed that the effect of salinity on flesh texture was probably related to changes in myofibril diameter and density. As for the taste of the flesh, water salinity improved the contents of both sweet and umami amino acids, and reduced the contents of bitter amino acid. Meanwhile, the content of IMP, the dominant flavor nucleotide in largemouth bass muscle, was significantly higher in the 0.9% group. Interestingly, electronic-tongue analysis demonstrated that the positive effect of salinity on flavor compounds enhanced the umami taste and taste richness of flesh. Moreover, rearing salinity improved the contents of C20: 5n-3 (EPA) and C22: 6n-3 (DHA) in back muscle. Therefore, rearing largemouth bass in adequate salinity may be a practical approach to improving flesh quality.
