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
Delayed fertilization leads to the ageing of post-ovulatory oocytes and reduces the developmental competence of arising embryos. Little information is available about the molecular processes during fish oocyte ageing. The current study investigated the functional consequences of oocyte ageing in grass carp Ctenopharyngodon idella embryos. In addition, the dynamics of selected post-transcriptionally modified histones (acetylation of H3K9, H3K14, H4K5, H4K8, H4K12, and H4K16) were analyzed during oocyte ageing. Ovulated oocytes were aged in vitro for 4 h in the laboratory incubator at 20 °C and studied for selected post-translational modification of histones. In addition, histone acetyltransferase activity was investigated as an important regulator of histone acetylation modification. The results indicated a significant decrease in oocyte fertilizing ability through 1 h of post-ovulatory ageing, and a complete loss of egg fertilizing abilities was detected at 4-h aged oocytes. Furthermore, post-ovulatory oocyte ageing for 1 and 4 h led to decreased levels of H4K12 acetylation. The activity of histone acetyltransferases increased significantly after ageing of the oocytes for 30 h in vitro. This modification may partly contribute to explaining the failures of egg viability and embryo development in the offspring from the aged oocytes. The results are the first to report histone modifications as a crucial epigenetic regulator during oocyte ageing in fish and might also benefit other vertebrates.
