Data on the diet and nutrition of urban and rural bumblebees.
Article in Scientific data, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Land-use changes, driven by agricultural intensification and urbanization, are major contributors to biodiversity loss, altering habitats and reducing available resources. These changes impact species' foraging strategies, particularly in human-modified ecosystems. While dietary shifts due to land-use changes have been well-studied in vertebrates, similar research in invertebrates, such as wild bees, remains limited. The present data paper provides a comprehensive dataset on the pollen collected from urban and rural populations of two bumblebee species (Bombus lapidarius and B. pascuorum) in Switzerland, examining pollen composition, nutrient content, and diet breadth. Additionally, by analyzing pollen from both body and leg-baskets, the dataset also offers a comprehensive overview of plant-bumblebee interactions. The data help understand plant-bumblebee interactions, pollination services, nutritional supply to larvae, and the impact of land-use changes on these processes. Furthermore, the dataset can be integrated with existing plant trait data to explore the effects of non-native species and other ecological factors on bumblebee foraging and nutrition in anthropogenically modified landscapes.
