The robustness of some Carboniferous fossil leaf venation networks to simulated damage.

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
Biological networks vary widely in their architecture and functional properties. Branching networks are good for transportation efficiency, while networks including loops offer good resistance to damage, and examples of these two topologies are found in leaf venation networks. The first plants with reticulate (loopy) leaf venation evolved in the Pennsylvanian of the Carboniferous, but the responses of different venation network architectures from this time period to damage are currently largely unknown. Here we address this issue with a computational analysis of venation network robustness that is focused on fossil leaves from the Pennsylvanian. We attacked fossil venation networks with simulated damage to individual vein segments and leaf blades. For both types of attack, branched venation networks are the least robust to damage, with greater robustness shown by the net-like reticulate networks found in the Pennsylvanian. A living angiosperm
