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 feeding behavior of mandarin fish (Siniperca chuatsi) is unique in that it exclusively preys on live fish throughout its life. Feed-based mandarin fish production has become central to aquaculture, yet domestication success remains low. This study examines intrinsic factors underlying poor feed acceptance in mandarin fish, alongside traits of domestication-susceptible individuals (group A) through a comprehensive comparison. The results showed that: compared to domestication-resistant mandarin fish (group B): (1) the glucose content and amylase activity in the serum of group A are significantly levels higher; (2) compared with domestication-resistant mandarin fish (group B), domestication-susceptible fish (group A) showed significantly higher serum glucose content and amylase activity. Glycolipid metabolism-related genes, including phosphofructokinase (pfk), phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (pepck), glutamic-pyruvic transaminase (gpt), and lipoprotein lipase (lpl), were significantly upregulated in the liver of group A. In the brain, orexigenic genes, including agouti-related peptide (agrp) and neuropeptide Y (npy), were upregulated, whereas anorexigenic genes, including cocaine- and amphetamine-regulated transcript (cart) and pro-opiomelanocortin (pomc), were downregulated in group A. Taste receptor genes, including t1r1 and t1r3, were downregulated in the tongue and lips of group A. Retinal function-related genes, including etinol dehydrogenase 8(rdh8), cellular retinol-binding protein (crbp), and retinal G protein-coupled receptor (rgr), were upregulated in group A, whereas learning/memory-related genes were downregulated; (3) gut microbiota differed markedly between groups, with Firmicutes dominating A and Proteobacteria B; metabolic functions showed greater divergence. These findings reveal differences in metabolic rate, visual/taste perception, and microbiota function, informing artificial selection for domestication.
