Identifying shark species responsible for fisheries depredation off Southeast Queensland, Australia.

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
Anecdotal reports from fishers in Southeast Queensland, Australia suggest that shark depredation is a significant issue, however little is known about which species are responsible for depredating catches. This research aimed to identify depredating species in Southeast Queensland line based fisheries, by undertaking a genetic analysis of depredated samples collected by commercial, charter and recreational fishers. The genetic analysis successfully identified ten depredating sharks, all from the genus Carcharhinus (19.2% success). The species identified using mitochondrial DNA included five C. leucas (bull sharks), two C. plumbeus (sandbar sharks), one C. amboinensis (pigeye shark), one C. brevipinna (spinner shark) and one unconfirmed C. plumbeus/C. altimus (bignose shark). While many species of Carcharhinus have been found to depredate catches in Australia, C. leucas has not been highlighted until this research as a potential problematic species. The optimised protocol allowed for the confident identification of shark species responsible for depredation in fisheries using frozen fish samples donated by fishers.
