Trematode infection buffers heat stress in blue mussels Mytilus edulis: The role of heat shock proteins.
Article in The Journal of animal ecology, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
The influence of parasite infection on host thermal tolerance remains poorly understood. To address this, we investigated how infection with the trematode Himasthla elongata affects survival and heat shock protein expression in the blue mussel Mytilus edulis following repeated exposure to heat stress in a simulated intertidal environment. Two groups of mussels with experimentally induced low (55.3
