Effects of Vip3AcAa+Cry1Ac Cotton on Midgut Tissue in Helicoverpa armigera (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae).
Article in Journal of insect science (Online), 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
To determine cellular changes caused by the chimeric protein Vip3AcAa against Helicoverpa armigera, we used transmission electron microscopy to examine ultrastructural changes in midgut cells of third-instar larvae of Cry1Ac-susceptible H. armigera after feeding on an artificial diet containing the Vip3AcAa toxin. Midgut epithelial cells of Cry1Ac-resistant H. armigera larvae that had fed on an artificial diet containing Vip3AcAa or on Bt cotton expressing Vip3AcAa+Cry1Ac were also examined using optical microscopy and hematoxylin-eosin staining. In the midgut cells of H. armigera larvae fed with Vip3AcAa, microvilli were swollen and broken; inner cristae of the mitochondria were indistinct and vacuolated; endoplasmic reticulum was swollen, fractured, and disordered; boundaries of karyotheca in the nucleus were indistinct and chromatin underwent pyknosis and was pressed close to the karyotheca. Histopathological changes and the time of onset in midgut tissues of H. armigera larvae fed on Vip3AcAa or Cry1Ac were similar. Vip3AcAa and transgenic cotton expressing Vip3AcAa+Cry1Ac caused the goblet cell cavity and microvilli pathological changes in the midgut epithelial cells of the Cry1Ac-susceptible and Cry1Ac-resistant H. armigera larvae that eventually killed the larvae.
