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

Fisheries are critical for sustaining waterfront communities. However, subsistence fishing is not well understood in the United States, despite its potential contributions to health and culture. We piloted a multivariable construct to classify subsistence vs. nonsubsistence fishers, identified the strongest predictor of participating in this practice, and tested for differences in place-based fishing motivations, behaviors, and community sharing. Among shore-based fishers in coastal Alabama, lower household income was the most powerful predictor of subsistence fishing. Subsistence fishers held more fishing motivations, targeted more specific fish groups, were more efficient in catching and keeping fish, and more frequently shared fish across social groups. Informed by these findings, we discussed management strategies to addressopportunities and barriers for shore-based subsistence fishing in coastal Alabama. More broadly, the framework piloted here offers a pathway to integrate subsistence fisheries into management using place-based evidence.
