How to choose the best category for a protected area? A multicriteria analysis method based on ecosystem services conservation.
Article in Environmental monitoring and assessment, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
This study proposes a novel methodology to define protected area (PA) categories based on the analysis of how much a PA can protect important ecosystem services (ESs). PA are important tools to minimize the continuing global biodiversity conservation crisis. However, the contribution of PA to conservation is variable, mainly due to the diverse management categories with which they can be associated. In order to support the assignment of a PA to a management category, a multicriteria analysis (MCA) strategy was developed. Essentially, it consisted of the application of an analytic hierarchy process (AHP) and its association to management categories that could support the conservation of the most significant ESs. To test the methodology, the framework was applied to the Carijós Ecological Station (ESEC Carijós), Santa Catarina, Brazil, and its surrounding area of influence. Using the IUCN list of categories for the case study, it was found that IUCN Ia and IV could be the most efficient measures to protect important ESs at ESEC Carijós. Although the methodology was applied to a particular case, it could be employed worldwide, establishing the best category to be assigned to an existing or proposed potential PA.
