Applicability and perspectives for DNA barcoding of soil invertebrates.
Article in PeerJ, 2024. 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
Belowground invertebrate communities are dominated by species-rich and very small microarthropods that require long handling times and high taxonomic expertise for species determination. Molecular based methods like metabarcoding circumvent the morphological determination process by assigning taxa bioinformatically based on sequence information. The potential to analyse diverse and cryptic communities in short time at high taxonomic resolution is promising. However, metabarcoding studies revealed that taxonomic assignment below family-level in Collembola (Hexapoda) and Oribatida (Acariformes) is difficult and often fails. These are the most abundant and species-rich soil-living microarthropods, and the application of molecular-based, automated species determination would be most beneficial in these taxa
