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 distribution of individual body sizes within a population can have substantial impacts on recovery estimates for endangered species. Recent studies have observed a reduction in the size of nesting sea turtles with potential implications for fecundity. To investigate the size of reproductive individuals and subsequent impacts on hatchling production for loggerhead turtles in northwest Florida, we evaluated a seven-year dataset from St. George Island, Florida, USA-the dominant nesting site in this region. Morphometric measurements and GPS locations were collected during nighttime surveys, whereas nest disturbances and hatchling production were reported from morning surveys. Mean minimum curved carapace length (CCL
