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

Mount Hamiguitan, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and a biodiversity hotspot in the Philippines, supports diverse and unique ecosystems. This study presents the first comprehensive assessment of land snail diversity across five vegetation types: agro-ecosystem, dipterocarp forest, montane forest, mossy forest, and mossy-pygmy forest. A total of 96 individuals, representing 20 species from 6 families, were recorded. The mossy forest exhibited the highest diversity (1-D = 0.85, H' = 2.03), while the agro-ecosystem and mossy-pygmy forest had lower diversity, attributed to habitat disturbance and extreme environmental conditions. Canonical Correspondence Analysis (CCA) revealed that environmental factors, including leaf litter depth, relative humidity, soil pH, and temperature, influenced land snail distributions. Axis 1 (31.85% constrained inertia) showed a gradient favoring generalist species (
