Recording and Quantifying C. elegans Behavior.
Article in Methods in molecular biology (Clifton, N.J.), 2022. 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
Studies of C. elegans behavior have been crucial in identifying genetic pathways that control nervous system development and function, as well as basic principles of neural circuit function. Modern analysis of C. elegans behavior commonly relies on video recordings of animals, followed by automated image analysis and behavior quantification. Here, we describe two methods for recording and quantifying C. elegans behavior: a single-worm tracking approach that provides high-resolution behavioral data for individual animals and a multi-worm tracking approach that allows for quantification of the behavior of many animals in parallel. These approaches should be useful to a wide range of researchers studying the nervous system and behavior of C. elegans.
