Morphological diversification among island populations of intertidal mites (Acari, Oribatida, Fortuyniidae) from the Galápagos archipelago.
Article in Experimental & applied acarology, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers.
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
The intertidal oribatid mite species Alismobates galapagoensis and Litoribates caelestis occur on the archipelago of Galápagos. To test for morphological variation between populations of different islands, a comprehensive morphometric study was performed. Four A. galapagoensis populations from the islands Bartolomé, Isabela, Santa Cruz and San Cristobal, as well as two L. caelestis populations from Bartolomé and Santa Cruz were investigated. The L. caelestis populations did not show any significant differences whereas the A. galapagoensis populations exhibited clear divergences indicating speciation. Differences in overall size of A. galapagoensis apparently followed a gradient from East to West, with specimens from San Cristóbal being the largest and individuals from Bartolomé and Isabela being the smallest. Apart from size, significant shape differences were found in the epimeral region and females showed stronger variation among islands than males. The degree of morphological divergence seems to correlate with geographic distance, i.e. populations from islands located closer to each other showed fewer differences than populations from distant islands. Based on this correlation we suggest that transport between islands has happened mainly by drifting on ocean currents.
