Marine synthetic ecology: From microbial communities to ecosystems.
Review in iScience, 2026. 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
Marine ecosystems are vital for global ecological functions and human health but face escalating threats from both anthropogenic activities and global climate change. Marine microorganisms, comprising over two-thirds of the marine biomass, play essential roles in biogeochemical cycling of elements and food webs. Synthetic ecology aims to understand ecological theories and provide nature-based solutions to emerging ecological and environmental problems. Here, we first propose a framework, the resource-design-verification-evolution-application (RDVEA) model for marine synthetic ecology studies, aiming to understand marine ecological theories, design and construct marine-specific synthetic communities, and optimize their functionality toward marine environmental applications. Synthetic ecosystems may target food web interactions, greenhouse gas mitigation, and carbon sequestration enhancement in the future marine environment.
