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

backgroundOwl monkeys (Aotus spp.) are a nocturnal nonhuman primate (NHP) native to central and South America that are used as infectious disease research models for human diseases, such as malaria and human immunodeficiency virus. Natural and infectious diseases may cause alterations in the hematology and serum biochemistry values, which necessitate the availability of reliable reference intervals for healthy animals.

methodsIn this study, hematology and serum chemistry reference intervals for Aotus nancymae were calculated from 191 healthy animals (95 female, 96 male) and were generated based on age class (juvenile, adult, geriatric), sex (adults only), and across the entire sample.

resultsSignificant differences were observed in multiple parameters as a function of sex and age, some of which are inconsistent with existing data from Aotus spp. and other NHPs.

conclusionsThe availability of age and sex specific reference intervals will be a valuable resource for monitoring the clinical health and effects of research interventions in owl monkeys.
