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

Macroalgal overgrowth-induced phase shifts pose a significant threat to coral reef ecosystems. While herbivores can help control macroalgae biomass in reefs, some allelopathic macroalgae can resist herbivores from foraging. This resistance can lead to a decrease in herbivory levels. However, the impact of these allelopathic effects on other feeding groups of reef fish remains unclear. We examined the presence of the allelopathic macroalga:
