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

To balance the basic needs of organisms, internal and external cues are used to inform the optimal behavioral strategy. Some of the best-studied related cognitive rules have emerged in predator-prey contexts, such as the threat-sensitivity hypothesis, which postulates that prey should adjust their antipredator behavior in accordance with the level of risk. Extending this theory, the risk allocation hypothesis posits that under long-term sustained high predation risk, individuals should decrease their antipredator responses towards risky stimuli so as to meet their energetic demands. Evidence for the risk allocation hypothesis has been mixed in invertebrates, particularly in gastropods, which are classic model systems for antipredator responses. This may be due to past studies frequently lacking sham controls and/or sufficient certainty about the risk regime. The present study in the aquatic gastropod
