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

Color production in lizards has traditionally been explained by interactions among dermal chromatophores, yet the full diversity of coloration mechanisms remains incompletely understood. Additionally, while most studies focus on visible colors, UV reflectance plays a crucial role in lizard signaling and its mechanistic basis remains poorly characterized. Here, we investigate the UV-blue patches of
