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
Posture control is crucial for animals. Static posture control in fish remains poorly explored. Recent studies have shown that larval zebrafish perform body flexion during slight roll tilts: the body flexion displaces a gas-filled swim bladder, generating counter-rotation torque for postural recovery through the misalignment of gravity and buoyancy forces. Swim bladder deflation impairs this postural recovery, suggesting its critical role. This static posture control strategy may be utilized by many fish species. However, adult fish differ from larvae in morphology and behavior, raising questions about the generality of this mechanism. Our behavioral analysis showed that adult zebrafish also flexed their body during roll tilts, with flexion persisting until recovery to an upright posture. Similarly to larvae, swim bladder deflation impaired postural recovery. These results demonstrate that adult fish employ static roll posture control through body flexion and suggest the generality of this mechanism in fish species.
