Mediterranean marine sediment cores database: unlocking paleoclimatic signals for the last 20,000 years.
Article in Scientific data, 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 Mediterranean Sea is a crucial area for studying past climate dynamics due to its unique geography and hydrology. We present PaleoMED20, a paleoclimatic database that spans nearly six decades of research in the Mediterranean, covering the last 20,000 years. With over 1,500 marine sediment cores, it includes oceanographic cruise data and descriptions of the related cores recovered. For each core, we gathered all available information on past environmental variables and their associated climatic indicators (proxies). Metadata were collected from over 400 scientific articles, and a sub-set of 36 well-studied and/or most relevant cores was selected from the total of 1,524 to explore the quality and utility of the database for further studies. Here we present how PaleoMED20 can be used to identify the available key environmental variables and proxies over the last 20,000 years, while also highlighting existing knowledge gaps. This database has the potential to inform future oceanographic expeditions in the Mediterranean and contribute to the development of strategies and policies for climate change mitigation and adaptation.
