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

This study aimed to assess the potential effect of climate change on habitat suitability for wild and cultivated food plants under future scenarios. Another aim was to determine whether food diversification can reduce the risk of food unavailability. Habitat suitability models were constructed for wild and cultivated species of economic and dietary importance and projected for future climate scenarios (2041-2060) using the Brazilian Semiarid as a case study. Variations in habitat suitability and species number were estimated for the species groups. The results showed that climate change can reduce habitat suitability for food plants, with a greater potential reduction for cultivated plants. The potential risk of species unavailability differed between groups. High-risk areas (species loss > 50%) were larger for cultivated species than for wild and cultivated species together. Thus, food diversification represents a sustainable solution to promote adaptation to climate change and maintain food security in the future.
