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

Understanding the developmental dynamics of immune system is essential for improving larval health management. This study examined the ontogenetic patterns of seven innate immune-associated parameters, viz. albumin, protease, antiprotease, sialic acid, nitrite, nitric oxide synthase (NOS), and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) along with a general clinical indicator of health (total protein content) from fertilized eggs (0 DPH) to the completion of metamorphosis (25 DPH) in a high-value tropical mariculture species, Trachinotus blochii. Among all parameters, protein content showed the least inter-stage variation (26.40%). All immune-associated markers displayed distinct, non-linear trajectories rather than a gradual, uniform progression. Larval development was marked by a steady rise in protease and NOS activities along with increasing nitrite levels. Metamorphosis was accompanied by marked changes in several immune-associated parameters, characterized by significant increases in albumin, nitrite, protease, and NOS, and simultaneous decreases in ALP, antiprotease, and sialic acid. These coordinated changes suggest intense modulation of innate immunity during the larva-to-juvenile shift. Post-metamorphic stages showed stabilization of several immune-associated markers, indicating the establishment of regulatory homeostasis. Multivariate analysis grouped early ontogeny into three clusters, with the greatest divergence observed between eggs and developmental stages undergoing metamorphosis. The present study also provides preliminary baseline reference values for innate immune-associated parameters during larval development of T. blochii. These findings contribute to the understanding of immune ontogeny in this species and may serve as a reference for future studies investigating larval immune development and hatchery management strategies following validation across multiple batches and functional immune assessments.
