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

Wildlife trafficking has escalated in recent years, leading to a rise in animal rescues every year. In Bangladesh, increasing numbers of primates are being rescued from illegal trades and private collections. Often, these confiscated individuals are released into the wild without proper assessment and rigorous planning. The survivability of these animals, as well as the potential negative impacts on both the released individual and recipient ecosystems, has not been systematically evaluated. In this study, we document two cases of misguided primate releases outside their natural ranges with potentially significant consequences. At two sites, two released individuals, an Assamese macaque (
