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

This study aimed to determine the effects of 3%, 7%, 11%, and 15% red pepper (Capsicum annuum) supplementation to diet on antioxidant, oocyte development and disease resistance against Aeromonas hydrophila A210 of jewel cichlid (Hemichromis guttatus). Fifteen fish (3.43 g ± 0.03) were stocked to each aquarium and fed ad libitum for 90 days. At the end of the trial, the number of mature oocytes increased by adding 11% and 15% red pepper to the diets. (P < 0.05). Fish fed diets containing 11% and 15% red pepper showed a significant rise in superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity (P < 0.05). In addition, fish fed diets containing 3% and 11% red pepper showed disease resistance against A. hydrophila in jewel cichlids. After challenge with A. hydrophila, cumulative mortality rates in fish fed with diets containing 3%, 7%, and 11% red pepper were significantly reduced compared to the control group (P < 0.05). Therefore, using 11% red pepper is appropriate to provide resistance against A. hydrophila infections, increase fertility and antioxidant levels in jewel cichlids (Hemichromis guttatus).
