Oxidative Stress Biomarkers in the Shrimp Macrobrachium amazonicum (Heller, 1862): Assessment in an Environmental Preservation Area in the Brazilian Amazon.
Article in Environmental toxicology, 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
Anthropogenic activities generate a significant amount of pollutants that are released into the environment, causing physiological and ecological disturbances. Among the xenobiotics present in aquatic ecosystems, numerous chemical and organic compounds have oxidative potential or are metabolized through oxidative processes, which may amplify the damage caused by reactive oxygen species to biological systems. The quantification of cellular damage and antioxidant defenses can be used as biomarkers for early aquatic contamination. The aim of this research was to use the shrimp Macrobrachium amazonicum as a bioindicator species to assess oxidative damage caused by xenobiotics in an Environmental Protection Area in the Brazilian Amazon. The analyses evaluated physicochemical parameters, Iron, Copper, Total Solids, pH, and Temperature, as well as non-enzymatic and enzymatic oxidative stress biomarkers: Thiobarbituric Acid Reactive Substances, glutathione (GSH), and catalase (CAT) in hepatopancreas homogenates. Among the analyzed metals, only copper (Cu) showed a statistically significant influence on GSH and CAT activities, whereas the other parameters did not exhibit significant effects. Oxidative stress parameters can be important tools in biomonitoring work, helping to understand the effects of contamination on aquatic organisms and providing important information on cellular defense modulations.
