Thermotolerance and place memory in adult Drosophila are independent of natural variation at the foraging locus.

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
Natural polymorphisms at the foraging (for) gene influence several behaviors. However, it is seldom clear how different for alleles could be selected. In one case, Drosophila with the rover allele (for(r)) have higher locomotor activity in the presence of food than animals with the sitter allele (for(s)), suggesting a complementary feeding strategy. There are, in addition, differences between for(r) and for(s) Drosophila in some tests of short-term memory (for(r) animals generally perform at higher levels) and thermotolerance (for(s) larvae are more resistant to the effects of high-temperature). We asked whether there could be a direct compensating advantages in adult for(s) flies that could maintain the natural for variants. First, are adult for(s) flies more thermotolerant? Second, do for(r) flies have a higher short-term place memory? Third, as an alternative, might for(s) flies have higher place memory? Our results do not confirm these possibilities. Thus, a thermotolerance advantage of for(s) flies does not compensate for a potential for(r) short-term memory advantage; for(r) flies do not have a universal advantage in short-term memory; and for(s) flies do not have an advantage in place memory that could compensate for for(r) advantages in other learning contexts.
