Peripheral circadian rhythms and their regulatory mechanism in insects and some other arthropods: a review.
Review in Journal of comparative physiology. B, Biochemical, systemic, and environmental physiology, 2012. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 32 papers.
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
Many physiological functions of insects show a rhythmic change to adapt to daily environmental cycles. These rhythms are controlled by a multi-clock system. A principal clock located in the brain usually organizes the overall behavioral rhythms, so that it is called the "central clock". However, the rhythms observed in a variety of peripheral tissues are often driven by clocks that reside in those tissues. Such autonomous rhythms can be found in sensory organs, digestive and reproductive systems. Using Drosophila melanogaster as a model organism, researchers have revealed that the peripheral clocks are self-sustained oscillators with a molecular machinery slightly different from that of the central clock. However, individual clocks normally run in harmony with each other to keep a coordinated temporal structure within an animal. How can this be achieved? What is the molecular mechanism underlying the oscillation? Also how are the peripheral clocks entrained by light-dark cycles? There are still many questions remaining in this research field. In the last several years, molecular techniques have become available in non-model insects so that the molecular oscillatory mechanisms are comparatively investigated among different insects, which give us more hints to understand the essential regulatory mechanism of the multi-oscillatory system across insects and other arthropods. Here we review current knowledge on arthropod's peripheral clocks and discuss their physiological roles and molecular mechanisms.
