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

Carotenoids are essential in crustacean aquaculture, supporting pigmentation, antioxidant defense, immune function, and sensory quality. However, intensive culture restricts natural carotenoid inputs, and exclusive reliance on astaxanthin is constrained by cost and supply. Evidence to guide cost-effective formulation remains fragmented: reported optimal doses vary widely, head-to-head comparisons under a common basal diet are scarce, mixture effects are poorly defined, and rigorous multi-factor optimization is rare. In this study,
