Plankton respiration in the Atacama Trench region: Implications for particulate organic carbon flux into the hadal realm.
Article in Limnology and oceanography, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Respiration is a key process in the cycling of particulate matter and, therefore, an important control mechanism of carbon export to the ocean's interior. Most of the fixed carbon is lost in the upper ocean, and only a minor amount of organic material sustains life in the deep-sea. Conditions are particularly extreme in hadal trenches, and yet they host active biological communities. The source of organic carbon that supports them and the contribution of these communities to the ocean carbon cycle, however, remain uncertain. Here we report on size-fractionated depth profiles of plankton respiration assessed from the activity of the electron transport system in the Atacama Trench region, and provide estimates of the minimum carbon flux (
