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

Plants respond with various defense mechanisms to pathogenic or herbivorous attack. Some chemicals called plant activators that induce the plant defense response against pathogens have been commercially used to protect plants. Here we studied the effects of tiadinil (TDL) on defense mechanisms against herbivores. TDL suppresses pathogenic fungi on tea leaves by inducing defense mechanisms. We used one of the major trophic systems in tea consisting of the herbivorous mite, Tetranychus kanzawai, and the predatory mite, Neoseiulus womersleyi. TDL enhanced the production of herbivore-induced plant volatiles that attract predatory mites. The predatory mites preferred the T. kanzawai-induced volatiles from TDL-treated plants to those produced by untreated plants. These results suggest that TDL activates the plant defense response via an indirect process mediated by plant volatiles that attract natural enemies of the herbivores. In contrast, the oviposition rate, adult maturation rate, and sex ratio of T. kanzawai were not affected by TDL treatment. These results suggest that TDL did not activate any direct defense against the herbivorous mite.
