Drivers of the range expansion of the European catfish (Silurus glanis) within its native distribution.
Article in Journal of fish biology, 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
The European catfish Silurus glanis L. continues to spread as an invasive species in Europe. Meanwhile, increasing abundance and range expansions are also suspected within its native distribution. The objective of this study was to characterize the feeding, growth and abundance of S. glanis in 12 lakes and 12 rivers within its European native range in relation to environmental changes that may explain population trends over time. The results suggest a shift in factors limiting the carrying capacity of catfish habitats within this range, leading to increases in growth and abundance. Statistical modelling identified warming and increasing population density of invasive gobies as likely contributors to this shift. Given that catfish predation on native species can be expected to increase dramatically, there is an urgent need for new management strategies. It is recommended that catfish removal rates should be increased, especially in areas of high importance for native fish and crayfish species, such as spawning grounds and at bottlenecks for migration.
