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

Severe tissue hypoxia, resulting from cardiac dysfunction for example, is increasingly recognized as a trigger for neurobehavioral change. However, the impact of tissue hypoxia on anxiety-like behavior and disinhibition during development remains poorly understood. Zebrafish larvae provide an effective vertebrate model to evaluate how hypoxia influences behavior in early life. We assigned larvae to three groups: (1) normoxic control, (2) acute severe hypoxic exposure (HE) using cardiac dysfunction as evidence of exposure severity, or (3) HE plus 12 h exposure to 0.3 μmol AZ3 (p38 MAPK inhibitor). At one- and 2-weeks post-exposure we quantified survival, morphometrics, and behavioral measurements (emergence latency, thigmotaxis, zone occupancy, novel object approach, and velocity). Survival differed significantly among all groups (
