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

This study was designed to develop a microemulsion formulation of norcantharidin for the control of the diamondback moth (DBM), Plutella xylostella (Linnaeus), a notorious pest of brassica crops worldwide. The oil phase was screened and selected based on norcantharidin solubility while the surfactants were selected on the basis of their efficiency to form microemulsion. Optimized batches were selected using pseudo ternary phase diagrams. The microemulsion system were stabilized using mixtures composed of norcantharidin, surfactants (Tx13 and Tw80), and cosurfactant (ethanol). Its physicochemical characteristics were also demonstrated to have a higher cloud point than 72 °C as well as good thermodynamic and dilution stability. In additon, a subsequent insecticidal bioassay indicated that the acute LC
