Genomic Structure and Molecular Characterization of Toll-like Receptors in Black Scraper Thamnaconus Modestus and Their Expression Response to Two Types of Pathogens.
Article in Marine biotechnology (New York, N.Y.), 2023. 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
The black scraper (Thamnaconus modestus) is an important commercial species in China. However, with the rapid expansion of aquaculture, the culture of this species faces substantial economic losses due to infectious diseases. Toll-like receptors (TLRs) recognize a wide range of pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) and play a crucial role in disease resistance by initiating innate immune responses in the host. The genome of the black scraper comprises eight TLR members, which can be classified into five subfamilies based on evolutionary analysis. Moreover, the TmTLRs were identified on 6 out of the 20 chromosomes in the black scraper. The functional similarity within the same subfamilies is evident by conserved motifs and gene structures. The qRT-PCR experiments revealed diverse TmTLR expression patterns in the liver, intestine, spleen, head kidney, heart, and brain of black scrapers, with high expression levels observed in immune organs, suggesting that TmTLRs may participate in the regulation of immune mechanisms and other physiological functions in the black scraper. At least six TmTLRs showed significantly upregulated expression in response to poly (I: C) or lipopolysaccharide (LPS) stresses, thus indicating their potential roles in regulating abiotic stress responses. In conclusion, our findings not only provide a foundation for future research on the TLR gene family in the black scraper but also offer guidance for disease prevention and vaccine development.
