Blooming Urban Table: Flower Resources for Butterflies in Small Wastelands of a Large European City.

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
Insect-flower relationships are among the most important ecological interactions occurring in the terrestrial ecosystem. In urban areas, such interactions are often disturbed or altered. However, few studies report floral affinities of butterflies in Europe, and our understanding of flower utilisation by butterflies in urban habitats is limited. Our study included long-term (2017-2022), qualitative observations and quantitative analyses of flower visits performed in 2021 and 2022 on five urban wastelands located in Łódź (Central Poland). We have recorded observations of 39 butterfly species on 81 species of plants (representing 19 families and 16 orders of plants). The majority of butterfly species were associated with many species of plants. We did not record tight associations with the colour of flower or the depth of flower, although in general, butterflies were observed on pink (21 species of plants), yellow (20 species of plants), white (17 species of plants) and violet (13 species of plants) flowers, while they were not recorded on orange, blue or red flowers. The most commonly visited flowering plants represented Asteraceae, Fabaceae and Lamiaceae. The highest number of butterflies was recorded on
