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

Ocean acidification, driven by the absorption of anthropogenic carbon dioxide into seawater, poses a significant threat to marine environments and biodiversity. This comprehensive review examines the specific impacts of acidification on the reproductive physiology of fish, integrating recent advances in our understanding of gonadal development, gametogenesis, and early embryonic development. We synthesize current findings on how altered carbonate chemistry disturbs the reproductive system from gametogenesis and fertilization to larval development and beyond. Our analysis reveals that ocean acidification affects multiple physiological pathways, including disruption of the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal (HPG) axis, impairment of calcium signaling, and alterations in sex hormone synthesis. We propose a mechanistic model in which pH reduction may weaken
