Impacts of warmer temperatures on secondary seed dispersal by
Article in Current research in insect science, 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
Climate change impacts species interactions with cascading effects on ecosystem functions, including seed dispersal. Studies show that frugivore behaviors and associated seed dispersal are altered under climate change. However, little is known about how climate-induced behavioral shifts of non-frugivores, such as secondary seed dispersers, impact seed fate. Dung beetles are important secondary seed dispersers in many ecosystems because they bury seed-containing dung as either food caches for adult feeding or brood balls for reproduction. We utilized field manipulations with mini-greenhouses to investigate the effects of increased temperature on the seed dispersal behavior of a tunneling dung beetle species,
