Effects of food quantity and quality on the life history of
Article in Journal of plankton research. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Until the 1950s, large-bodied calanoids and cladocerans dominated the zooplankton community of Lake Victoria, whereas cyclopoid copepods only comprised 10% of microcrustaceans. From the 1960's onwards, cyclopoid copepods increased to 70-90% of zooplankton and cladocerans, now dominated by small species, decreased to ca. 5%. Concomitantly phytoplankton biomass increased and shifted from dominance of diatoms to Cyanobacteria, which were hypothesized to be of less nutritional quality, causing the shift in zooplankton. We investigated whether the natural assemblage of Cyanobacteria in Mwanza Gulf negatively affected growth and fecundity of cladocerans. In 2010-2011, we performed life-history experiments with the cladoceran
