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 changes in water flow caused by hydropower projects and river diversions have had a profound impact on aquatic ecosystems, especially due to artificial structures such as dams and bridge piers. This study investigates the swimming behavior differences between single and dual fish in the wake region behind a D-shaped obstacle, using Percocypris pingi as the experimental species. The results show that single fish efficiently utilize vortex energy through the Kármán gait, improving swimming efficiency, while the dual-fish group failed to maintain a stable Kármán gait, resulting in irregular swimming trajectories. However, the dual-fish group optimized wake utilization by maintaining a fore-aft linear alignment, improving swimming efficiency and resisting vortices. The conclusion indicates that mutual interference in group swimming affects swimming efficiency, with fish adjusting their swimming patterns to adapt to complex hydrodynamic conditions. By altering swimming formations, fish schools can adapt to the flow environment, offering new insights into the swimming behavior of fish and providing theoretical support for ecological conservation and hydropower project design.
