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

Kisspeptin (Kiss) and kisspeptin receptor (Kissr) system is a key regulator of GnRH expression in several vertebrates. The Indian catfish, Clarias magur, is popular in the Indian sub-continent, and a neo-type of the Asian catfish, C. batrachus. Catfish breeding is constrained as males do not release milt captivity with/without stimulation. Magur Kiss/Kissr system comprising of kiss1, kiss2, kissr1, and kissr2 genes was characterized for the first time. Full-length mRNA was sequenced using RACE PCR. Neighbor-joining tree of predicted proteins shows one clade of teleost orthologs. Magur whole genome (NCBI GenBank) has single copies of each gene, though yet unannotated/misannotated. Anomalies in the nomenclature of earlier sequences in GenBank were noted. Relative gene expression was profiled during various ontogenic stages, in six tissues including brain and gonads at maturity, and also in brains and gonads of premature and spent fish. Expression of gnrh1, gnrhr1, and gnrhr2 was estimated concomitantly. The kiss1 was the first to be twofold upregulated (P < 0.05) at 12 h post fertilization. Kiss/Kissr genes expressed primarily in the brain, ovary, and testis. Though kiss2 was 10 times higher than kiss1, only kiss1 showed significant modulation across stages and appears to be the active isotype that regulates GnRH in magur.
