Age Is Just a Number: No Impacts of Scat Ageing on Single Nucleotide Polymorphism Genotyping Using a Target Capture Approach.
Article in Ecology and evolution, 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
Recent advances in DNA sequencing and genotyping technologies are rapidly building our capacity to address ecological, evolutionary, and conservation questions for wildlife. However, wildlife genetic research increasingly relies on samples containing low quantities and quality of DNA, such as non-invasive, archival, and environmental DNA. These samples present unique methodological challenges; for samples collected in the wild, it is important to understand the impact of environmental exposure time or sample 'age' on DNA quality and downstream genetic analyses. Here, we aged koala (
