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

Accurate representation of international trade in live macaques is a matter of considerable conservation and public health relevance. Our response to Warne et al. (2023) describes data handling and interpretation deficits among evaluation of non-human primate trade and the treatment of international wildlife trade more generally. In contradiction to statements made by Warne and colleagues, according to US trade records, thousands of live macaques have been exported to the United States from China since 2018 and this high-risk trade in endangered species continues to warrant attention from conservation and public health perspectives. The accuracy of wildlife trade data used to influence policy decisions also warrants greater scrutiny by researchers and decision-makers applying their results.
