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

Repeated size measurements of individual animals are valuable data for many research questions, but it is often hard to obtain without causing stress or damage to the animal. We developed a video-based approach called Zoobooth to size individual zooplankton, which involves a low risk of handling accidents and stress. Here we describe the process of assembling the instrument we used to acquire video recordings of single zooplankton and the procedure to obtain size estimates from the recorded videos. Our setup produces accurate size estimates for
