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

Somatostatin (SST) plays diverse physiological roles in vertebrates, particularly in regulating growth hormone secretion from the pituitary. While the function of SST as a neuromodulator has been studied extensively, its role in fish and mammalian reproduction remains poorly understood. To address this gap, we investigated the involvement of the somatostatin system in the regulation of growth and reproductive hormones in tilapia. RNA sequencing of mature tilapia brain tissue revealed the presence of three SST peptides: SST6, SST3, and low levels of SST1. Four different isoforms of the somatostatin receptor (SSTR) subfamily were also identified in the tilapia genome. Phylogenetic and synteny analysis identified tiSSTR2-like as the root of the tree, forming two mega clades, with SSTR1 and SSTR4 in one and SSTR2a, SSTR3a, and SSTR5b in the other. Interestingly, the tiSSTR-5 isoforms 5x1, 5x2, and 5x3 were encoded in the
