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 Pacific white shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei) aquaculture faces emerging threats from novel pathogens and escalating antibiotic resistance. This study successfully isolated and identified the pathogenic bacterium Acinetobacter ursingii strain 31C2 from diseased L. vannamei using an integrated approach combining microbiological, biochemical, and molecular techniques. The pathogenicity of this strain was confirmed in L. vannamei and marine medaka (Oryzias melastigma) infection models, exhibiting a strong dose-dependent mortality, with median lethal doses (LD₅₀) of 2.83 × 10⁴ CFU/g shrimp and 2.58 × 10⁶ CFU/fish, respectively. Infection caused severe hepatopancreatic necrosis (tubular deformation and epithelial vacuolation) and intestinal villi destruction. Antimicrobial susceptibility testing revealed that the 31C2 strain was resistant to tetracycline and azithromycin. To identify effective agents targeting this strain, the antimicrobial peptide Scymicrosin
