Distribution, Sampling Effort, and Species Richness of Scarabaeinae (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae) in Chiapas, Mexico.
Article in Zoological studies, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Based on a comprehensive literature review, we present an analysis of the richness of the subfamily Scarabaeinae and its distribution in Mexico's Chiapas state. The reviewed works provided information from 185 localities where 134 species belonging to 24 genera were recorded. Fourteen species (10.4%) are endemic to Chiapas, mainly restricted to montane forests. The number of species places Chiapas as one of the regions with the highest species richness in Mexico, representing 39.2% of the Scarabaeinae diversity known in the country. Although the sampling effort is relatively high compared to other regions, there is a strong sampling bias, with localities unevenly distributed in the state territory, most of them concentrated in easily accessible areas, with extensive regions with little or no representativeness, including mountainous areas and several natural protected areas. This information may constitute a valuable contribution to future projects on the taxonomy and biodiversity of dung beetles, so considering poorly explored regions constitutes a niche of opportunities that would allow expanding the knowledge on Scarabaeinae at a regional level.
