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

Mass mortality events characterized by muscle whitening occurred in farmed whiteleg shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei) in the Republic of Korea from July to September 2025. After ruling out the major crustacean pathogens listed by the World Organization for Animal Health (WOAH) through molecular screening, three dominant isolates of Photobacterium damselae subsp. damselae were recovered from the affected shrimp. The isolates were identified by 16S rRNA gene sequencing and confirmed by detection of the ureC gene. Phenotypic characterization showed that P. damselae subsp. damselae SNUABM-JN1 grew across a wide range of temperatures (10-40°C) and salinities (0.5%-5.0%), with a shorter lag phase at 29°C across the tested salinity range. In the challenge test, the median lethal dose (LD
