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

High-latitude ecosystems are undergoing rapid ecological changes in response to climate warming. While some changes are well studied, the responses of microbial communities remain less understood. Testate amoebae, shell-producing protists well preserved in peat, provide a means to reconstruct past microbial dynamics. Mixotrophic taxa such as Archerella flavum host algal endosymbionts (zoochlorellae), allowing both heterotrophic and phototrophic energy acquisition. Previous work has demonstrated that these pathways result in different δ
