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

We analysed 57 years of Fisheries Society of the British Isles (FSBI) symposia, showing speakers with traditionally female names increased from near absence to reaching parity in recent symposia. International affiliations increased in the late 1980s, peaking in 2024 with 27 countries, albeit with overrepresentation of high-income countries. Timekeeping for 68 presentations at the 2025 symposium showed that senior scientists were more likely to overrun than junior presenters; no systematic gender differences were detected. Although gender representation has improved, timekeeping asymmetries reveal career-stage effects, underscoring the need for consistent data collection, moderation and equitable session management.
