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

Marine foundation species such as large macrophytes (i.e. seagrasses, canopy-forming seaweeds) serve critical ecological functions, yet are increasingly impacted by anthropogenic climate change. Temperature extremes pose significant challenges to these species, and identification of thermal thresholds offer valuable insights into how populations and species may respond to current and future climatologies. The objectives of this study were to compile experimentally-derived upper thermal limits (T
