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

Copepods are a group of marine plankton that play an essential role in the energy transfer within marine ecosystems. They serve as vital prey for the larvae of numerous economically important fish, shrimp, and crabs species. Bestiolina amoyensis, a copepod species inhabiting nearshore warm waters, possesses numerous commercial advantages for aquaculture due to its small size, rapid reproduction, and strong adaptability, that make it well-suited for use as live prey in aquaculture systems. In this study, a breeding program targeting high fertility was designed and implemented. Fifty pairs of adult B. amoyensis were randomly selected to establish the base population (G0), with the total egg production used as the breeding index. In the selected group, offspring from maternal lines that ranked in the top 30% for total egg production were selected and eggs laid on the 4
