Impacts of Land Use and Water Quality on Macroinvertebrate Diversity Under Human Disturbance in the Lake Chaohu Basin, China.
Article in Ecology and evolution, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Freshwater ecosystems play a critical role in sustaining biodiversity, but with increasing anthropogenic disturbances in recent years, issues such as water degradation and biotic community decline have become increasingly severe. Although existing research has explored the impact of water quality factors and land use on macroinvertebrate communities, the specific mechanisms by which human activities indirectly influence macroinvertebrate diversity by altering the aquatic environment are still underexplored. Therefore, this study, on the basis of land use, aquatic environmental, and macroinvertebrate survey data, employed a Partial Least Squares Path Model (PLS-SEM) to elucidate the mechanisms by which land use and water quality factors jointly drive changes in macroinvertebrate communities. Our results demonstrate that macroinvertebrate community structure varied significantly among disturbance levels, with biodiversity indices increasing progressively as disturbance intensity lessened. Specifically, pollution-tolerant taxa dominated in high disturbance areas,
