1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Wildlife health assessments including haematology and biochemistry parameters are essential to evaluating the well-being of free-living species. In Galapagos, the iconic giant tortoises still thrive in the archipelago despite anthropogenic pressures, with up to 13 extant species distributed across most islands and ecosystems. In previous work conducted by our research group, we described for the first-time reference intervals of haematology and plasma biochemistry in four Galapagos tortoise species. With the aim of continuing to provide cutting-edge health data for Galapagos tortoises, here we report haematology and plasma biochemistry descriptive statistics, reference intervals and cell morphology of tortoises from four different tortoise populations (i.e. Alcedo Volcano, Cerro Azul Volcano, Cinco Cerros and Sierra Negra Volcano)
