1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Understanding the effects of artificial structures in marine landscapes is required for ecosystem-based management. Global demand for oil and gas and accelerated commitments to renewable energy development has led to the proliferation of marine artificial structures. Investigating the cumulative effects of these structures on marine ecosystems requires data on the benthic community over large geographical and long-time scales. It is imperative to share the data collected by many stakeholders in an integrated information system to benefit science, industry and policy. BISAR is the first data product containing harmonised and quality-checked international data on benthos from artificial structures in the North Sea. BISAR was compiled from environmental impact assessment studies and scientific projects (3864 samples, 890 taxa). Data derive from 34 artificial structures and surrounding soft sediments (years: 2003 to 2019). Structures include offshore wind turbines, oil and gas platforms and a research platform. Data from a geogenic reef, allow comparison of natural and artificial reef communities. We aim to host future BISAR data dynamically in the CRITTERBASE web portal.
