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

The optokinetic response (OKR) within zebrafish larvae consists of automatic stereotypical eye movements in response to a visual stimulus. This response is characterized by a tracking (slow phase) followed by a rapid (fast phase) saccade in the opposite direction to the stimulus. Studying OKR behavior provides valuable information on the visual function of genetically modified animals. Here we describe a method for assessing visual function and color vision testing in zebrafish larvae at 5 days postfertilization.
