SIBES: Long-term and large-scale monitoring of intertidal macrozoobenthos and sediment in the Dutch Wadden Sea.
Article in Scientific data, 2025. 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
The Wadden Sea is the world's largest intertidal area and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Macrozoobenthic invertebrates perform key ecological functions within intertidal areas by regulating nutrient cycles, decomposing organic matter, and providing food for fish, birds and humans. To understand ecological processes and human impacts on biodiversity, the Synoptic Intertidal BEnthic Survey (SIBES) has sampled intertidal macrozoobenthos since 2008. On average 4,109 stations across 1,200 km² of Dutch Wadden Sea mudflats are sampled from June to October to quantify the benthic invertebrate community and sediment composition, including species abundance and biomass, and grain size and mud content. The dataset published now contains 51,851 sampled stations with 3,034,760 individuals of 177 species. This paper details data collection, validation and processing methods. SIBES is ongoing and data will be updated yearly. In sharing these data, we hope to enhance collaborations and understanding of the impact of various pressures on macrozoobenthic invertebrates, sediment composition, food webs, the ecosystem, and biodiversity in the Wadden Sea and other intertidal habitats.
