Importance of Spring Habitats for Amphibians: The Case of Estavelle Ecotones in the Classical Karst Region.
Article in Animals : an open access journal from MDPI, 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
Springs are ecotones between groundwater and surface water, important for a variety of both surficial and subterranean organisms. However, their use by amphibians has been poorly assessed. This is evident considering estavelles, typical ecotones functioning not only as spring but also as sinkholes. Here we aim to assess the use of estavelles by amphibians in the Classical Karst Region. From June 2020 to January 2025, we surveyed 61 springs, both during day and night. We visually recorded the occurrence of amphibians, along with abiotic and biotic features-including the presence of pikes (
