Similar Survival Rates of Territorial and Sneaker Males in a Polymorphic Damselfly: A Multi-Year Study.
Article in Ecology and evolution, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Male alternative reproductive tactics (ARTs) have been documented across diverse taxa and typically involve a male morph that defends resources to attract females and an alternate morph that exploits this behavior to obtain matings by stealth (territorial-sneaker tactics). One might expect that territorial morphs would live shorter lives than sneaker morphs due to their higher vulnerability to predators, their propensity to get injured and higher energetic costs. To date, there have been few direct field tests of this prediction. A mark-release-resighting (MRR) study conducted in 1992 found that orange-winged territorial morphs of the damselfly
