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

Tropidothorax elegans Distant (Hemiptera: Lygaeidae) is an insect pest that inflicts damage to vegetables and flowering plants across China. The olfactory system regulates insect behavior, such as feeding, mating, oviposition and predator avoidance. Odorant-binding proteins (OBPs) and the chemosensory proteins (CSPs) are two groups of small soluble proteins that initiate olfactory signal transduction in insects. In this study, we generated antennal transcriptomes of male and female T. elegans, and identified 19 putative OBP (14 classic OBPs and five plus-C OBPs) and seven CSP genes. Through real-time quantitative PCR analysis, we found that 14 of the 19 OBP genes were highly expressed in the antennae of both adult females and males, and 3 OBP genes were expressed higher in the antennae of males than females. Some OBP genes were also highly expressed in the legs or wings. Three CSP genes were highly expressed in the antennae of both sexes, and TeleCSP7 showed higher expression in male antennae compare to females. Interestingly, one CSP gene, TeleCSP2, was expressed in all olfactory tissues. Our results provide molecular insights into further investigating of the olfactory system of an important plant pest, T. elegans.
