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

backgroundThe Pontastacus leptodactylus is a freshwater crayfish species with high commercial value and promising aquaculture prospects. This species is widely distributed in Eastern Europe, including Turkey and Belarus, and Central Asia, including Kazakhstan and Iran. In 2023, we reported the first discovery of the P. leptodactylus in the Irtysh River Basin, Xinjiang, China. METHODS AND

resultsTo assess the genetic diversity of this species in Xinjiang, we analysed 77 individuals (51 males and 26 females, with the largest individual reaching 136.75 g in weight and 22 cm in length) of P. leptodactylus from two geographical populations using mitochondrial COI gene sequences. The two geographical populations of P. leptodactylus in Xinjiang encompassed a total of 6 haplotypes, with an average haplotype diversity index of 0.192 and an average nucleotide diversity of 0.00037. The Habahe County population presented greater genetic diversity than did the Jeminay population. Phylogenetic analysis revealed that COI sequences from Jeminay (21), Habahe (28), France, Turkey, Iran, and Croatia formed a monophyletic clade, indicating close phylogenetic relationships between the Chinese and West Asian populations.

conclusionThis study provides the first molecular data on P. leptodactylus in China, establishing a foundation for the conservation and sustainable utilization of its genetic resources.
