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 present a comprehensive, decade-long (2014-2024) aerial survey dataset of northern Eurasian waterbirds, covering a broad northern Eurasian study area, with survey effort concentrated in the Russian Arctic and Subarctic. Surveys in a purpose-built light hydroplane covered 1,140,337 km of flight tracks across 67 administrative districts and a net, non-overlapping area of 1,918,845 km² (45.20-76.52°N, 35.49°E-180.00°E / 180.00°W-172.05°W). The dataset contains 97,638 georeferenced occurrence records, comprising 2 distinct survey components: marine (14%) and inland basin (86%) surveys. The 10 most abundant species (4 geese and 6 ducks) account for 76% of all individuals. Following spatial deduplication with survey-type grouping, the dataset encompasses 2,438,521 deduplicated individuals from 42 species in 19 genera, distributed as: marine surveys: 397,373 individuals (16%) from 34 species; basin surveys: 2,041,148 individuals (84%) from 42 species. These records provide a spatially explicit baseline for analyses of broad distribution patterns and conservation planning in surveyed regions of northern Eurasia.
