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

Here we present a multi-marker DNA barcoding library for Hong Kong marine fishes (Teleostei), cephalopods (Mollusca), and crustaceans (Arthropoda) frequently captured by purse seine fisheries. In total, 605 specimens were morphologically identified with 562 specimens sequenced and assigned to 185 fish species from 146 genera, 64 families, and 26 orders; 8 cephalopod species from 6 genera, 4 families and 4 orders (24 specimens); and 13 crustacean species from 10 genera, 5 families and 1 order (19 specimens). The barcode library includes mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI) and mitochondrial 12S ribosomal RNA (12S) barcodes for fishes, and COI and mitochondrial 16S ribosomal RNA (16S) barcodes for cephalopods and crustaceans. Specimens were assigned to species-level using integrated morphological and genetic assessment. The library represents the first barcode reference dataset for marine fishes, cephalopods and crustaceans from Hong Kong, increasing our knowledge of species diversity, enabling accurate identification of the three nekton groups and improving species identification reliability for eDNA metabarcoding studies in Hong Kong waters and the northern South China Sea.
