The Larger the Egg, the Safer the Nest: A Study on the Negative Correlation Between Nest Predation Rates and Egg Size of Two Tropical Phasianids in Hainan.
Article in Ecology and evolution, 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
Nest predation is the principal cause of breeding failure, with ground nests facing greater predation pressure. Most phasianids are vulnerable to endangerment owing to their relatively large body size, low breeding rate, and tendency to build ground nests. However, research on the nest predation of phasianids largely overlooks egg size, a potential key factor, especially in tropical phasianid nest predation studies. We aimed to investigate the influence of egg size on the predation rate and predator combinations of two phasianids (red junglefowl
