Partial nocturnal behaviour of giant mottled eels, Anguilla marmorata, in a small river, Amami-Oshima Island, Japan, from acoustic telemetry.
Article in Journal of fish biology, 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
Anguillid eels typically exhibit nocturnal behaviour, but giant mottled eels A. marmorata are often observed during daytime in rivers on Amami-Oshima Island, Japan. We investigated their diel activity patterns and spatial use with stationary-receiver acoustic telemetry. Three tagged eels demonstrated partially nocturnal behaviour with some daytime activity. They displayed strong site fidelity to specific receiver locations, with occasional longer excursions to distant receiver locations. Because A. marmorata is a unique large-bodied apex predator in tropical rivers and likely faces little predation risk, it might not need to restrict activity to night to avoid predators.
