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 commercial designation "cod" () is applied to multiple fish species, raising concerns regarding seafood authenticity and nutritional consistency. This study combined DNA barcoding with comparative nutritional profiling to authenticate frozen products marketed as "cod" () from major Chinese e-commerce platforms and to evaluate nutritional differences among the identified species. Among the 36 products analyzed, eight fish species were identified: three Gadiformes species (55.6%) and five non-Gadiformes species (44.4%). Interspecific differences were observed in proximate composition, amino acid composition, free amino acid profiles, and fatty acid composition. True cod species exhibited higher protein contents (>19.0%), lower lipid contents (0.51-1.02%), and higher proportions of EPA + DHA (35.61-37.10% of total fatty acids) than non-Gadiformes species. In contrast, non-Gadiformes species generally contained higher lipid levels (15.02-23.09%), lower proportions of long-chain ω-3 PUFA, and distinct flavor-related amino acid profiles.
