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

The Cretaceous/Palaeogene (K/Pg) boundary marks the most recent and the second-most severe mass extinction in Earth's history. Marine K/Pg boundary sections that preserve uninterrupted sedimentation are abundant, and thus the global marine response to this extinction event is well understood. Similar terrestrial sedimentary sequences that record the before and after of the extinction and that are also geochronologically well constrained are rare. We describe and compare the non-marine squamate diversity immediately before (
