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 present study evaluated the effects of dietary supplementation with single- and multi-strain autochthonous lactic acid probiotics on the growth performance, gut histomorphology, and gut microbiome of juvenile Penaeus vannamei. Shrimp were fed probiotic-supplemented or control diets for 60 days. Dietary supplementation with Pediococcus pentosaceus (10⁹ CFU g⁻¹) and Lactiplantibacillus plantarum (10⁹ CFU g⁻¹) significantly (P < 0.05) improved growth performance compared with the control. Additionally, MSP11, MSP9, and PP11 significantly (P < 0.05) enhanced localized gut histology, including villi length, crypt depth, and muscularis mucosae thickness, respectively. Gut microbiome analysis showed treatment-specific shifts in bacterial community composition, with significantly (P < 0.05) increased microbial diversity (alpha diversity) in shrimp receiving the high-dose multi-strain probiotic. Probiotic supplementation also enriched beneficial bacterial taxa, including members of the families Oxalobacteraceae, Flavobacteriaceae, and Bacillaceae, while promoting the establishment of potentially beneficial genera such as Ralstonia and Paracoccus. Overall, dietary supplementation with autochthonous lactic acid probiotics, administered individually or as a multi-strain consortium, improved growth, enhanced gut morphology, and favorably modulated the gut microbiome of P. vannamei, highlighting their potential as sustainable functional feed additives in shrimp aquaculture.
