Rapid recovery of coral communities from a mass bleaching event in the summer of 2016, observed in Amitori Bay, Iriomote Island, Japan.

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
Devastating bleaching of coral communities at Amitori Bay, Iriomote Island, Japan, occurred in 2016 during the third global mass bleaching event in 2014-2017. The present study documented changes in coral communities in Amitori Bay from just before until after the 2016 bleaching event (2016-2020), by measuring coral cover and recruitment at nine sites (with two additional sites in 2018) in the bay. Spawning rates of acroporid corals were also monitored from 2017 to 2019 by visual observation and using bundle collectors to observe how long the effect of bleaching persisted. Reductions of 64.7 and 89.5% from 2016 to 2017 were observed in cover and recruitment of all coral families, respectively. Coral cover of all coral families recovered to pre-bleaching levels by 2020 and recruitment in 2020 was about two times greater than the pre-bleaching level. These results mirrored those of acroporids. Spawning rates of Supplementary Information: The online version contains supplementary material available at 10.1007/s00227-022-04091-2.
