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

The genus Ceratomyxa is composed of approximately 300 described species, most of which are found parasitizing hosts in marine aquatic environments. The present study, through phylogenetic, molecular and morphological analyses, described a new species of Ceratomyxa found parasitizing Leporinus affinis specimens from the Tartarugalzinho River, in municipality of Tartarugalzinho, state of Amapá, Brazil. The new species was found parasitizing the urinary bladder of L. affinis. The myxospores of Ceratomyxa affinis n. sp. are 7.2 µm long and 43.2 µm thick with a posterior angle of 170º. The polar capsules measure 3.9 µm long and 4.05 µm wide. Based on morpho-molecular analyses, it was possible to prove that Ceratomyxa affinis n. sp. is a new species, contributing to the knowledge of the parasitic fauna of fish in the Amazon region.
