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

Dredging, the removal of sediments and rocks from an aquatic environment, is necessary to ensure that adequate coastal infrastructure is maintained for maritime shipping. However, the sediment plumes generated by dredging could have adverse impacts on coral reef ecosystems that are already facing numerous local and global stressors. This is especially true in areas where the predominant strata are aragonitic limestone which must be physically broken apart to be extracted, leading to very high concentrations of fine suspended sediment in the water column. To examine the role suspended sediment plays in stress, this study exposed two coral species (
