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

China harbors extensive saline-alkaline water resources with considerable potential for aquaculture development. However, their utilization is constrained by high pH, elevated carbonate alkalinity, and complex ionic composition. Exopalaemon carinicauda, a commercially important shrimp species in China, is recognized for its environmental adaptability, rapid growth, desirable flesh quality, and high economic value. Owing to its resilience to diverse environments, E. carinicauda serves as an ideal model for investigating the molecular mechanisms underlying saline-alkaline adaptation in crustaceans. Yet, the genetic determinants of its alkalinity tolerance remain poorly understood, hindering selective breeding efforts. In this study, bulked segregant analysis (BSA) coupled with next-generation sequencing was employed to identify single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) associated with alkalinity tolerance. DNA from individuals exhibiting extreme phenotypes was pooled, and allelic differences were assessed using Euclidean distance, deep learning, and ΔSNP-index methods. A total of 20,879,626 SNPs were detected, and seven candidate genomic regions spanning 47.53 Mb on chromosomes 4, 11, 13, 18, 26, and 36 were identified, encompassing 194 genes. Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway enrichment revealed significant associations with GABAergic synapse, taste transduction, and vasopressin-regulated water reabsorption. Comparative transcriptomic analysis under high-alkalinity stress in hepatopancreas and gills identified 28 genes strongly linked to alkalinity tolerance, including gamma-aminobutyric acid receptor, glutamate receptor ionotropic, and basic salivary proline-rich protein. Two SNP loci, C4-2601 and C8-6550, significantly associated with alkalinity tolerance were validated through PCR-based sequencing. These findings provide critical insights into the genetic architecture of alkalinity tolerance in E. carinicauda, facilitating future genomic and marker-assisted selection strategies.
