Effects of Marine Ranching on Phytoplankton Community: A Case Study in the Bailong Pearl Bay National Marine Ranching Demonstration Zone, China.

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 ranching is an important strategy for restoring marine habitats and replenishing aquatic populations. However, the effects of marine ranching on phytoplankton dynamics remain unclear. In this context, this study takes the Bailong Pearl Bay National Marine Ranching Demonstration Zone as an example to evaluate the influence of marine ranching on the spatial and temporal variation in phytoplankton abundance and community structure. A total of 101 phytoplankton species, spanning 44 genera and 26 families, were documented in the Bailong Pearl Bay National Marine Ranching Demonstration Zone, with 19 of these species identified as harmful algal blooms (HABs) or potential HABs. In spring, phytoplankton abundance remained relatively uniform across sampling stations, with community structure characterized by varying combinations of co-dominant species. In summer, phytoplankton density within the demonstration zone was higher than in adjacent regions. In contrast, lower phytoplankton abundance was observed within the demonstration zone during autumn and winter, periods marked by phytoplankton blooms in surrounding areas (autumn:
