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

Passage behaviour at barriers of migratory fish is well studied in rivers, whereas little is known about fish movement at estuarine barriers. In response to climate change, more estuarine barriers are likely to be erected in the future, further compromising connectivity for diadromous fish. As these fish species are already severely endangered, there is an urgent need to better understand passage behaviour at barriers to facilitate connectivity. These fish face challenges at estuarine sluice gates, where suitable passage windows occur only infrequently. To enhance fish migration, sluice management at the Haringvliet barrier, located at the mouth of the Rhine and Meuse rivers, was recently adjusted to allow controlled inflow from the sea ("Kier management"). We assessed upstream passage windows for large anadromous fish prior to this adjustment, using long-term (1996-2018) telemetry (NEDAP Trail System
