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

Pesticides can bioaccumulate in fish tissues, and there are serious concerns around the world about their effects on consumer health. The objective of this study was to highlight the effects of two commercial pesticides, ethoprophos and bispyribac-sodium, commonly used on high-consumption crops in Egypt, either individually or in mixture, on some biomarkers of Nile tilapia, Oreochromis niloticus, an important commercial fish species. Low concentrations of ethoprophos (96 µg/L) and bispyribac-sodium (1.28 µg/L) were selected to evaluate the effect of these substances on neurotoxic marker (acetylcholine esterase, AChE), liver function parameters (alkaline phosphatase, ALP; alanine aminotransferase, ALT; and aspartate aminotransferase, AST), and renal function parameters (creatinine and urea), as well as genotoxic marker (micronuclei, MN; and other nuclear abnormalities) during variable periods (7, 14, 21, and 28 days). The results demonstrate that ethoprophos and bispyribac-sodium pose a risk to native freshwater fish by causing detrimental effects. Both compounds, separately and in combination, induced neurotoxicity, hepatorenal biomarkers inductions, and increases in MN frequency and other erythrocytic nuclear abnormalities in a time-dependent manner. Moreover, the mixture displayed both synergistic and antagonistic interactions for examined parameters. This study highlights the importance of using validated biomarkers to monitor fish health, which may be utilized as early alarms of environmental risks.
