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

Lake Van is the largest lake in Turkey and one of the few soda lakes in the world. The Lake Van fish (Alburnus tarichi), an endemic carp species, has fully adapted to the soda water in this lake. As an anadromous fish, it migrates from the lake to Freshwater (FW) every year between April-July. During migration, the fish activate osmoregulatory mechanisms to maintain water and salt balance. This study examined the pseudobranch tissues of Lake Van fish from both Lake Van and Karasu Stream. Morphological analysis showed that the pseudobranch, located on both opercular valves, was covered with transparent connective tissue. Histologically, the tissue contained different cell types, including pavement, pillar cells, and erythrocytes. Higher mucous cell density were found in the stream environment, while immunohistochemical (IHC) analysis showed more Na+/K+-ATPase-positive cells in the stream fish. These results suggest that the pseudobranch plays a key role in osmoregulation, helping the fish adapt during migration.
