Qualitative and quantitative analysis of chemicals emitted from the pheromone gland of individual Heliothis subflexa females.
Article in PloS one, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
The chemicals emitted from the sex pheromone gland of individual Heliothis subflexa females were sampled using a short section of thick-film megabore fused silica capillary column, and the pheromone glands of the same females were extracted after the effluvia collection. Both samples were treated with a silylation reagent, and then subjected to gas chromatography-chemical ionization-mass spectrometry for quantitative and qualitative analysis of all components. The total amount of all 11 components emitted from the glands of calling females was 153 ng/female/hr, which was substantially higher than previously reported. The ratios of the pheromone components in the volatile emissions and pheromone gland extracts were generally similar to previous studies, but with notable differences. The collections of volatiles and gland extractions contained, respectively: Z9-14:Ald (1.57%, 1.35%), 14:Ald (3.78%, 1.51%), Z7 + Z9-16:Ald (9.60%, 3.59%), Z11-16:Ald (76.14%, 18.94%), 16:Ald (2.95%, 2.17%), Z9-16:OH (0.07%, 7.21%), Z11-16:OH (1.11%, 49.04%), Z7-16:OAc (0.48%, 1.73%), Z9-16:OAc (1.32%, 4.02%), and Z11-16:OAc (2.98%, 10.43%). The thick-film megabore column is an efficient approach for sampling the headspace for semiochemicals.
