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 free-swimming gelatinous stage of medusozoans, generally called 'jellyfish', frequently swarms around the intake area of the Fangchenggang Nuclear Power Plant, posing a noticeable risk to its operational safety. Traditional ecological survey methods have limitations in rapidly and effectively assessing the diversity and spatiotemporal distribution of medusozoans, particularly during their early life stages, such as planulae, polyps, and ephyrae. To compensate for these limitations, we employed environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding technology-a non-invasive, efficient, and broadly applicable approach-to conduct targeted surveys during the winter and summer seasons. The findings revealed notable seasonal variations in medusozoan community composition, with 29 and 56 species identified in winter and summer, respectively (
