Chorus Organization in a Neotropical Forest Cicada.
Article in Biology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
In many species of animals, males aggregate in particular locations and produce calls to attract searching females for reproduction. One striking feature of such choruses is synchronization. On a scale of hours, choruses are often concentrated at particular times of day, such as dawn or dusk. On a scale of seconds, males may also synchronize the rhythm of their calls with one another. While synchronized calling at this scale suggests benefits acting at the collective level, competitive interactions between males to attract females can also lead to synchronized calling as an epiphenomenon. Why males in some species synchronize the rhythm of their calls is still debated, and more work is needed to understand the evolution of this behavior. I investigated chorus organization in the Emerald cicada (
