DNA barcode reveals occurrence of threatened species and hidden diversity on Teleost fish trade in the Coastal Amazon.
Article in Scientific reports, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
This study aimed to identify the teleost fish species sold in Bragança, a major fishing hub on the north coast of Brazil. The COI gene analysis was performed for the identification of fish species. The local market uses common names that are not accurate and do not reflect the diversity of the species. 204 sequences were obtained, with 119 haplotypes. 83 species were identified by comparing with public databases and constructing phylogenetic trees, with Carangidae being the most prevalent family. The study also found Haemulon atlanticus, Menticirrhus cuiaranensis and Hoplias misioneira, a newly described species from the Amazon basin, among the samples. Additionally, 73 commercial names were recorded, including 10 categories, and the illegal trade of Epinephelus itajara was detected. The DNA Barcode method proved to be effective for discriminating the species. The study highlights that common and commercial names are vague and underestimate the fish diversity, and that Brazil needs to revise its regulations for commercial and scientific names.
