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

Studying the diet of penguins is essential for understanding their role in marine ecosystems, evaluating their responses to environmental changes, and informing conservation strategies. This manuscript presents the 'Penguin Diet Dataset-v2', a comprehensive compilation of dietary data for 17 out of 19 currently recorded penguin species, obtained through a systematic review of the scientific literature. Spanning the 1980-2019 period and covering 149 global locations, the dataset includes 2.749 dietary entries with both qualitative and quantitative information on prey types. The dataset is enriched with metadata such as geographic locations, time periods, seasons, and life stages, providing insights into species-specific dietary patterns and ecological trends. Key prey groups include fish from the class Teleostei, crustaceans from the class Malacostraca, and mollusks from the class Cephalopoda. The Adélie Penguin and the Magellanic Penguin are the most extensively studied species. This dataset serves as a valuable resource for advancing research on penguin feeding ecology and addressing gaps in knowledge on understudied species, regions, and time periods.
