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

Anti-Müllerian hormone, a glycoprotein hormone encoded by the amh gene, induces Müllerian duct regression during male embryonic development and contributes to gonadal maintenance in adults. Recent studies indicate that amh also directly regulates sex determination in various fish species. Grass carp (Ctenopharyngodon idella), an important aquaculture species, exhibits a sexual maturation period of 4-5 years, yet the molecular mechanisms underlying its sex differentiation remain unclear. To explore the function of amh in the sexual development of grass carp, this study cloned the full-length sequence of the amh gene, detected the expression characteristics of the amh gene in different ages, and conducted amh gene interference experiments. The results are as follows: (1) The full-length cDNA of the grass carp amh gene is 2080 bp, including an open reading frame (ORF) of 1668 bp, a 5' untranslated region (5'UTR) of 39 bp, and a 3' untranslated region (3'UTR) of 373 bp, which encodes 555 amino acids. (2) The gene amh expression was consistently higher in male than in female gonads, with a sharp increase in 3-4-year-old males, whereas expression in females showed only a modest rise; (3) After amh silencing interference was performed on male fish, the expression level of amh decreased significantly, 1 day after interference, the expression levels of foxl2a, foxl2b, and dmrt1 were significantly upregulated; 3 days after interference, the expression level of cyp19a began to be significantly upregulated; 4 to 5 days after interference, the expression levels of foxl2a, foxl2b, cyp19a, and dmrt1 gradually returned to levels close to the control group. In addition, compared with the control group, the testosterone (T) content in male fish of the interference group decreased significantly, while the estradiol (E
