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

Evolutionary divergence in sexual signals may lead to or maintain reproductive isolation between populations. Both selective forces-such as ecological and sexual selection-and random processes like genetic drift may influence the diversification of sexual signals. Understanding the patterns and sources of intraspecific variation in sexual signals among populations can inform the stages of differentiation and speciation. In this study, we investigated patterns of geographic variation in vocal sexual signals and how they relate to genetic and environmental distances among nine populations of Pacific tree frogs. Importantly, the taxonomy of Pacific tree frogs remains unresolved; while some authors recognize only one species (
