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

Broodstock management in aquaculture aims to optimise larval production to meet farm demand, which requires precise monitoring of the reproductive cycle. Traditional methods such as histology often require killing of fish, making them unsuitable for monitoring reproductive dynamics at fish level. This study evaluates ultrasonography as a non-invasive tool for describing ovary size dynamics in European seabass (Dicentrarchus labrax). We monitored 48 females fed with different feed amounts with ultrasounds along an entire reproductive cycle, to assess the effect of feed intake on ovarian development. The ovary volume estimated with ultrasounds has been found to be highly correlated with ovary weight (r
