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

Understanding variability in environmental DNA (eDNA) concentration is essential for improving the precision of quantitative eDNA analyses. While previous laboratory and field studies suggest that technical variation arising from sampling and PCR processes is relatively small, the hierarchical structure of this variability and its environmental dependence remain poorly understood. In this study, we conducted spatiotemporally replicated seawater sampling from a coastal ecosystem, quantified Japanese jack mackerel (
