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

Fishes experience thermal stress in their natural environment that can be caused by natural or anthropogenic factors and can directly affect their physiology. In this study, we developed a multispecies OpenArray™ qPCR (quantitative polymerase chain reaction) 'chip' to measure the effects of acute thermal stress on the mRNA response of Acipenser sturgeons. The qPCR chips were then tested on three species: Acipenser fulvescens, Acipenser oxyrinchus and Acipenser brevirostrum. The A. fulvescens were from two genetically distinct populations (Burntwood River and Winnipeg River, Manitoba, Canada) that were acclimated to three different temperatures (16, 20 and 24°C) to quantify the effects of genetic background and acclimation temperatures on the transcriptomic response to acute thermal stress. Additionally, juvenile A. oxyrinchus oxyrinchus and A. brevirostrum were acclimated to 10°C and then experienced acute thermal stress. All three species were sampled for gill and liver before and after experiencing acute thermal stress, which was applied using a CT
