Suborbital- and millennial-scale monsoon variability during Pleistocene interglacials.
Article in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 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
Observational and modeling results show that the frequency and amplitude of extreme climatic events have increased significantly in the context of global warming. However, whether abrupt climate changes intensified during past warm periods remains poorly constrained due to the lack of high-resolution geological records. Here, we report a 512-m predominantly lacustrine sedimentary record from the Weihe Basin (North China), revealing that lake levels fluctuated significantly on suborbital (half- and quarter-precession) and millennial timescales over the last 2 Ma. Grain-size results reveal that magnitudes of rapid lake level fluctuations increased dramatically during Pleistocene interglacials, differing from glacial amplification of abrupt climate events recorded in North Atlantic marine sediments. Model results indicate that summer insolation maxima in low-latitude region of both hemispheres can lead to intensified monsoon precipitation in East Asia. Our proxy-model comparison highlights the importance of low-latitude bihemispheric insolation maxima in driving millennial-scale hydroclimatic variability in a warming future.
