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

Desmodesmus spp. are one of the most dominant components of phytoplankton, which are present in most water bodies. However, identification of the species based only on morphological data is challenging. The aim of the present study was to provide a comprehensive understanding of the actual distribution of the Desmodesmus species in Saga City, Saga Prefecture, Japan. In the present study, 38 water bodies were surveyed between June 2017 and March 2023. A total of 86 culture strains were established from the samples collected from the 21 sites, and identified by molecular phylogenetic analysis, comparison of ITS2 rRNA secondary structures, and observation of surface microstructure. In total, four new species, including D. notatus Demura sp. nov., D. lamellatus Demura sp. nov., D. fragilis Demura sp. nov., and D. reticulatus Demura sp. nov. were proposed and 17 Desmodesmus species were identified as described species. The present study revealed > 20 Desmodesmus species, exhibiting high genetic diversity in a small area.
