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

Clarias gariepinus is an important freshwater fish with high economic value and breeding potential in China. It is a fast-growing and adaptable catfish, but the main problems facing the current market are its low price and poor taste, although starvation is a good solution to these problems. In this study, the effects of starvation on the physiology, biochemistry, and muscle quality of C. gariepinus were investigated. The results showed that compared with the control group, the weight gain rate and specific growth rate of the starvation group were significantly different. Body weight, visceral weight, condition factor, viscerosomatic index, hepatosomatic index, and viscera fat index all decreased, while visceral weight and hepatosomatic index decreased significantly after starvation for 30 days. The hardness and crude protein of muscle increased significantly and crude lipid decreased significantly. Taste-enhancing amino acids increased slightly, and fatty acids increased significantly. Compared with the control group, starvation led to changes in antioxidant defense parameters. The level of malondialdehyde (MDA) in liver increased significantly; the activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD) increased in serum after 30 days; the activities of glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) increased considerably in the serum and liver after 15 days; the activities of alanine aminotransferase (ALT) increased considerably in the serum and liver after 30 days. The in-depth study of changes in physiological, biochemical, and nutritional components of fish under starvation is helpful to understand the ecological strategy of fish to adapt to starvation and of great guiding significance for fishery resource management and aquaculture production.
