The Biodiversity of Peter I Island-The Most Remote Island in the World.

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
Peter I Island is one of the most isolated and least visited islands on earth; lying within the Antarctic Polar Front but over 420 km from continental Antarctica makes it inherently interesting to study in the context of polar biogeography. First discovered in 1821, it was only landed on in 1929 due to challenging ice conditions. Subsequent landings for scientific exploration have been rare, with the primary focus on geological studies and limited biodiversity assessments. To date, only two dedicated marine biodiversity surveys have been conducted, revealing unexpectedly high diversity but limited taxonomic coverage. We provide a comprehensive species list of the area by compiling all previous records with our own data collected in January 2022. Here, a BioBlitz was conducted on the island and surrounding waters, documenting terrestrial, avian and marine species. We identify 15 species new to the region, including benthic and pelagic fauna, as well as an expanded understanding of cetacean and pinniped presence in the area. Marine SCUBA surveys revealed diverse algal and invertebrate communities, emphasising Peter I Island's unique ecological makeup within the Antarctic marine ecosystem. This study establishes a critical biodiversity baseline for ongoing monitoring as the island faces potential ecological shifts due to global change.
