Seasonal and Daily Variations in Dung Beetle Assemblages (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae) in Two Contrasting Habitats in a Livestock Ranch in Central Uruguay: Implications for Habitat Management and Species Conservation.

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
Dung beetles play a vital role in the functioning and sustainability of agroecosystems. The temporal niche partitioning facilitates species coexistence by minimizing interspecific competition. Temporal activity patterns of dung beetles are influenced by various biotic and abiotic factors. Changes in land use by humans may alter activity patterns and spatial distribution. In this study we analyzed a) the seasonal variations in abundance and richness of dung beetle assemblages in two contrasting habitats within a ranch in Uruguay, and their relationship with environmental factors; b) the influence of the habitat on the daily patterns of flight activity of dung beetles, as well as seasonal and daily changes species composition; and c) the seasonal variations of daily activity patterns of the most abundant species. We sampled dung beetles every two weeks for a year with pitfall traps baited with carrion and cow and horse excrements in an open grazed pasture and a
