Patterns of human-wildlife conflicts and management: insights from areas adjacent to Mid Zambezi protected areas.
Article in BMC 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
Human-Wildlife Conflicts (HWC) are common challenges in communal areas adjacent to protected areas. The objectives of the study were to: (i) determine the key depredated domestic animals over five years, (ii) determine the key wildlife species causing HWC, trends in conflicts and the nature of HWC and (iii) establish management measures employed to minimise HWCs. Secondary data was collected from seven (7) protected areas and three (3) rural district council areas’ annual reports. The data were obtained from field reports between January 2017 and December 2021. Goats (Capra aegagrus hircus) 512 (47%) and cattle (Bos taurus) 409 (38%) were the main domestic animals depredated by wildlife. The study showed that out of the five (5) species involved in the conflicts, the top two (2) species reported were lions (Panthera leo) and hyenas (Crocuta crocuta). To mitigate HWC in the study area, a multi-action approach has been proposed.
