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.
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
Introduction: The study was conducted to investigate effects of dietary antimicrobial peptide, tilapia-derived endogenous piscidin 4 (TP4), on growth performance, antioxidant capacity, immune response and disease resistance of juvenile Nile Tilapia ( Methods: Four diets with supplementation of 0 g/kg (Control), 2.0 g/kg, 4.0 g/kg, and 8.0 g/kg of TP4, respectively, were prepared for tilapia (initial weight 11.67 ± 0.21 g). Results: Results showed that specific growth rate of fish fed the diet with 2.0 g/kg TP4 was significantly higher, while feed conversion ratio was lower than those in the control (P < 0.05). Meanwhile, 2.0 g/kg TP4 supplementation markedly elevated crude protein contents and condition factor, as well as intestinal trypsin and lipase activities than the control ( Discussion: In conclusion, 2-4 g/kg TP4 supplementation in the diet effectively enhanced antioxidant capacity, immune response and disease resistance, which may potentially improve the growth performance.
