New deep sea terebellid polychaete with sucker like ventral pads adapted to a sediment free environment.
Article in Scientific reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
A new species of terebellid polychaete, Lanice spongicola sp. nov., is described from deep-sea sponges in the northwestern Pacific Ocean off Minamidaito Island, Okinawa, Japan. This species is associated with the sponge Walteria cf. leuckarti at a depth of 843 m. It is characterized by a deeply grooved, sucker-like mid-ventral pad on segments II-VI, three pairs of arborescent branchiae, distinct notochaetae and neurochaetae morphology and arrangement, and its ecological association with sponges. The anterior area of ventral pad is used as an adhesion organ, facilitating attachment to the host sponge. This species is a terebellid that differs from the typical sediment-dwelling lifestyle, having adapted to a sediment-free environment through a relationship with sponges and the development of specialized sucker structures for attachment.
