Migration and population characteristics of white-naped cranes wintering on the Korean Peninsula.
Article in Scientific reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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 white-naped crane (Antigone vipio), distributed across East Asia, is classified into two distinct populations: eastern and western. The eastern population breeds in the Amur region of China and Russia and winters in Korea, whereas the western population breeds in northeastern Mongolia and winters at Poyang Lake in China. The aim of this study was to examine the population characteristics of white-naped cranes wintering in Korea and clarify the migratory behavior of the western population, which has been poorly understood. Population trends were assessed using data from the Winter Waterbird Census of Korea. In 2022 and 2023, the migratory routes were tracked using GPS transmitters attached to 12 cranes captured in eastern Mongolia. The analysis revealed a remarkable 2313.7% increase in the number of cranes wintering in Korea between 2000 and 2024 and demonstrated an expansion in their wintering range. The findings also confirmed that some individuals from the western population migrate to Poyang Lake and Korea. Systematic habitat management and improved wintering conditions on the Korean Peninsula could have been crucial factors in this increase. This study highlights the Korean Peninsula as a key wintering site for white-naped cranes in East Asia, providing valuable insights for future conservation strategies.
