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

Vibriosis, caused by Vibrio species, threatens marine aquaculture worldwide. Traditional vaccination methods are labor-intensive, expensive, and stressful for fish. This study investigates genetically modified Nannochloropsis sp. as a novel oral vaccine carrier against vibriosis. Using homologous recombination, nitrate reductase gene was targeted to integrate an expression cassette containing the outer membrane protein kinase (OmpK) gene from V. harveyi. Transformed microalgae were generated through electroporation and screened with bleomycin. Transgenic lines were validated at genomic, transcriptional, and translational levels. The transgenic microalgae were incorporated into fish feed to assess vaccine efficacy in fish model for infectious disease, zebrafish (Danio rerio). Immune responses were analyzed by examining IgZ, TNF-α, and IL-1β gene expression. Efficacy was evaluated through histopathology and relative percentage of survival (RPS) following bacterial challenge. Results confirmed successful transformation, with microalgae surviving bleomycin screening at 30 µgml
