Identification of the holocrine oil gland in gills of silver carp using semi-thin sections and transmission electron microscopy.
Article in Protoplasma, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
Gills are associated with a gland known as the cervical gill slit gland. Little is known regarding the composition, function, and nature of the secretion from the gill slit glands. The current work used semi-thin sections and transmission electron microscopy to analyze the morphological aspects of the gill or brachial gland in the apparently, three healthy silver carp (H. molitrix). The oil cells' basal zone had a flattened profile, a prominent nucleus with euchromatin and distinct nucleuses, and cytoplasm with relatively few lipid droplets and an indistinguishable smooth endoplasmic reticulum. The maturation zone takes on a polyhedral form, has pronounced SER, and accumulates various lipid droplets. They have a dilated smooth nuclear membrane and a dilated SER. Lipid droplets may be associated with the SER. The pyknotic nucleus identified damaged oil cells that had empty spaces and were involved in different stages of making lipids connected to the formation of small sacs. More studies should be done to explore the chemical properties of the secretion, and the tissue features of the secretory epithelium to gain a clearer understanding of the signal produced by the gill slit gland.
