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
A new species, Myxobolus liuyangensis sp. n., was found in the gills of the exotic mrigal carp Cirrhinus mrigala during a survey of the fauna of exotic fish myxospore in China. Plasmodia were elongated pyriform, measuring 0.42 mm long and 0.15 mm wide. The mature spores were elongated pyriform in the frontal view, tapered forward, rounded posterior end, and fusiform in the sutural view, measuring 17.3 ±0.5 (16.5-18.3) μm long, 6.2 ±0.3 (5.2-6.8) μm wide, and 4.8 ±0.2 (4.4-5.1) μm thick. The two equal polar capsules of elongated pyriform in shape measured 11.3 ±0.5 (10.6-12.3) μm long and 2.5 ±0.3 (2.0-3.1) μm wide, occupying more than half the capacity of the spores. The polar filaments were coiled with fifteen to sixteen turns. No mucous envelope and caudal appendages were found. The consensus SSU rDNA gene sequence obtained here for M. liuyangensis sp. n. did not match any sequences available in GenBank, but was most closely related to M. catlae that infects the gills of C. cirrhosis (MT003664, 97.99% similarity). Phylogenetic analysis indicated that the C. mrigala-infecting Myxobolus species were not clustered together, but dispersed in different clades. The present species clustered with M. catlae and M. orissae within the clade I of elongated pyriform spore shapes, revealing spore shapes may play an important role during the evolution of Myxobolus species. This is the second myxosporean infection report in the exotic mrigal carp C. mrigala.
