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

Understanding how global warming affects collective behaviours is crucial, as these behaviours are widespread among social animals with key ecological roles. One direct yet underexplored consequence of global warming is rising ground temperatures, which can affect animals' collective behaviour by altering coordination, physiology and communication. As eusocial ectotherms, ants provide an ideal model for studying the impacts of ground warming on collective behaviours such as cooperative transport-the coordinated movement of large objects by multiple individuals. To test cooperative transport performance under warming conditions, we experimentally increased ground temperature and offered artificial baits to
