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

Necrophagous Diptera larvae are usually the earliest carrion-visiting necrophages in terrestrial ecosystems. However, despite the significant contribution of dipteran larvae to the natural decomposition process of large mammals in the ecosystem, which are thought to have a significant impact on ecosystem function and stability, there are still many unknowns regarding the function of maggots during actual decomposition of carcasses in the field. This study investigates the role of necrophagous dipteran larvae in the decomposition of sika deer (
