1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

The biophysical mechanism of the magnetic compass sense of migratory songbirds is thought to rely on the photochemical reactions of flavin-containing radical pairs in cryptochrome proteins located in the birds' eyes. A consequence of this hypothesis is that the effect of the Earth's magnetic field on the quantum yields of reaction products should be sensitive to isotopic substitutions that modify the hyperfine interactions in the radicals. In this report, we use spin dynamics simulations to explore the effects of
