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

Nematode parasites of the family Anisakidae can cause human disease when ingested, at the third larval stage (L3), through infected fish or fish products. While human infection is often asymptomatic, in some cases it may present with symptoms ranging from mild to severe gastrointestinal disorders, skin rash, itching, or even anaphylaxis. Ingestion of destroyed L3 (e.g., following processing, sanitisation, or cooking) may still trigger allergic reactions. In the present study, the occurrence of Anisakidae L3 in ready-to-eat (RTE) fish products was investigated. A total of 108 RTE fish products, representing eight species and five processing methods, were examined using (a) macroscopic inspection, (b) artificial digestion (AD), and (c) molecular analysis of both the AD material (to detect non-visible parasite fragments) and the larvae collected by the first two methods. Nematodes morphologically identified as Anisakidae L3 were detected in 32 of the 108 samples (29.62%). Molecular analysis of the AD product did not reveal additional positive samples and confirmed the identification of the isolated larvae as
