Carrion Increases Landscape-Scale Scavenger Activity and Interactions.
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 2 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
Carrion is a nutrient-rich but spatiotemporally unpredictable resource that supports diverse trophic interactions, and its consumption plays a key role in energy recycling within ecosystems. Although previous research has almost exclusively examined scavenger activity at carcasses, the broader impacts of fluctuating carrion availability on landscape-scale activity patterns and scavenger competitive interactions remain largely unexplored. Here, we investigate whether carrion provisioning influences broader road use activity in two competing facultative scavenger species: dingoes (
