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

Introduction: Seagrass meadows have undergone substantial declines in Vietnam over recent decades owing to habitat loss, climate change, nutrient enrichment, and other anthropogenic disturbances. Methods: We analyzed genetic diversity, population structure, and contemporary connectivity using 12 microsatellite loci genotyped from 154 multilocus genotypes collected from ten populations distributed across the Eastern waters (central Vietnam, South China Sea) and Western waters (An Giang coast, Gulf of Thailand), with distances among sampling locations ranging from 20 to 1,250 km. Results: High clonal diversity (R = 0.77-1.00) indicated that populations were maintained predominantly through sexual reproduction. Genetic diversity varied among populations, with the highest allelic richness observed in Van Phong Bay and Cam Ranh Bay, whereas Cu Mong Lagoon exhibited the lowest diversity. Population genetic analyses revealed significant genetic differentiation, restricted connectivity between the Eastern and Western waters, and a weak but significant pattern of isolation by distance. Nha Trang Bay was highly differentiated from all other populations and received very limited contemporary gene flow, suggesting the influence of habitat-associated isolation. Based on migration rates and relative genetic contribution, Van Phong Bay, Cam Ranh Bay, and Hai Tac Archipelago were identified as candidate source populations for conservation and restoration. Discussion: These findings provide a comprehensive assessment of the population genetic structure of
