Modulation of Paternal Care Behaviors in Response to Stream Conditions by Eastern Hellbenders (

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 rapid environmental changes associated with the Anthropocene mean that flexible behavioral responses may be a critical determinant of animals' resiliency to anthropogenic disturbance, particularly for species with long generation times and low vagility. One type of behavior that exemplifies this potentially important flexibility is parental care. Eggs and juvenile animals are sensitive to environmental stressors, and the ability of parents to adjust care behaviors to buffer their offspring from rapidly changing conditions may be critical to successful reproduction. In this study, we explore the role of parental care in buffering eggs from anthropogenic stressors in the long-lived, fully aquatic eastern hellbender salamander (
