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

The Ediacaran-Cambrian boundary, which precedes one of the most significant biotic diversification events in Earth's history, is associated with a global negative carbon isotope excursion termed the BAsal Cambrian carbon isotope Excursion (BACE). Late Ediacaran and early Cambrian changes in shallow marine oxygenation have been proposed to relate to the BACE as well as metazoan extinction and radiation. However, reconstructing paleoredox conditions at the Ediacaran-Cambrian boundary is limited by challenges in correlating carbonate strata due to sparse stratigraphic markers and non-unique chemostratigraphic correlations. These imprecise correlations have led to uncertainty in how redox changes across the BACE should be interpreted in relation to broader regional and global environmental patterns. Here, we present redox reconstructions from southwestern Laurentian carbonate successions that record the BACE, including the limestone-dominated Deep Spring Formation, southwestern USA, and the dolostone-dominated La Ciénega Formation, northern Mexico. We combine local (carbonate-bound iodine, I/(Ca + Mg) and cerium anomaly, Ce/Ce*) and global (carbonate-associated uranium isotopes, δ
