Atlantic oceanic islands and archipelagos: Physical structures, plant diversity, and affinities of the bryofloras.
Article in Biodiversity data journal, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
We investigated the species richness, endemism, and similarities of the bryofloras on ten islands and archipelagos in the Atlantic Ocean. We address the following questions: 1) How many bryophyte taxa are there on each island and archipelago? 2) Do mosses and liverworts share similar patterns of diversity? 3) What are their taxonomic distribution patterns? 4) How many endemic taxa are found on the islands? 5) Is there a high degree of similarity amost these bryofloras? We encountered 1,498 taxa, 408 genera, and 204 families, with the seven families representing 35% of all species. Over 14% of the bryophytes are African elements, 8% have global distributions, ca. 3% are Macaronesia elements, 13% are endemic, and 62% with other distributions. We present a checklist of 1,498 bryophyte taxa, of which 201 are endemic (13%). Bryophyte richness and diversity differ significantly amongst the ten islands and archipelagos, and their low similarities illustrate their high degrees of heterogeneity.
