The Elusive Troglobius brasiliensis (Collembola: Paronellidae), a Critically Endangered Species Rediscovered and Redescribed in Its Habitat and Food Web.
Article in Neotropical entomology, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
Troglobius brasiliensis is a troglomorphic species known only from a single cave in the Brazilian rain forest. This is the first record of the species since its original collection in 1988 and subsequent formal description approximately 30 years ago. We present an integrative redescription of T. brasiliensis based on detailed morphological analysis with scanning electron microscopy. It is a coded redescription with a molecular marker (COI), comprehensive notes on its habitat. The species was found exclusively along the riverbank, restricted to a single sector of the aphotic zone, approximately 40 m from the main cave entrance; both adults and juveniles were observed, indicating a functional and reproductive population. The detailed morphological documentation presented here allows robust comparisons with all known species of Troglobius, and other members of family Paronellidae, contributing to refining species diagnosis and providing a standardized framework for future taxonomic and conservation studies involving subterranean fauna.
