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

Coastal blue carbon ecosystems (BCEs) are among the most effective carbon (C) sinks, yet Irish saltmarshes, covering 4000-6500 hectares, remain understudied in terms of C sources. Understanding saltmarshes' connectivity to marine and terrestrial sources, and the provenance of allochthonous (ex-situ-produced) carbon, is essential for assessing their long-term C sequestration potential and management. This study analysed organic carbon (OC) and bacteriohopanepolyol biomarkers (BHPs), microbial lipids that trace sedimentary OC sources, in sediment cores from Derrymore Island (DI) and North Bull Island (NBI). OC concentrations varied down-core, ranging from 0.26-26.68 wt% at DI, 0.44-12.19 wt% in NBI's North Lagoon, and 0.07-26.45 wt% in its South Lagoon. The
