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 European grayling is an ecologically and recreationally important salmonid fish species. However, its wild populations have declined in recent years across Europe due to habitat degradation, predation and overexploitation. Unfortunately, conservation measures such as stocking with hatchery-reared fish may threaten the genetic integrity of native populations. The use of triploid all-females, which display markedly reduced fertility, offers a potential solution to this problem. While protocols for inducing triploid and gynogenetic development of the species exist, an effective method for producing neo-males, essential for large-scale triploid female stock production, is still lacking. In the present study, the potential suitability of 11β-hydroxyandrostenedione (OHA) and 17α-methyltestosterone (MT) for masculinization of the European grayling was investigated, aiming to provide preliminary data to support the future development of a reliable biotechnique for neo-male production in this species. Pilot trials of hormonal masculinization were conducted by feeding 20-day post-hatch fry with diets supplemented with OHA (10 mg/kg-OHA
