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

introductionGinsenosides, including protopanaxdiol (PPD) and protopanaxtriol (PPT) type ginsenosides, have been identified as natural insecticidess. This study aimed to investigate the antifeedant and ovicidal activities of total ginsenosides, protopanaxdiol saponins (PDS) and protopanaxtriol saponins (PTS) against Asian corn borer, O. furnacalis (Guenee). METHODS AND

resultsO. furnacalis egg masses (> 40 eggs) at 0-, 1- and 2-day-old were dipped into ginsenosides and egg hatchability was significantly inhibited by total ginsenosides, PDS, and PTS in dose and egg-age dependent manners. 100 mg/ml PDS had the strongest ovicidal activity against 0- (80.58 ± 0.95%), 1- (71.48 ± 5.70%), and 2-day-old eggs (64.31 ± 3.20%). In no-choice and choice feeding tests, we observed that the 3rd instar larvae consumed decreased area of leaves treated with ginsenosides, and the antifeedant activities of total ginsenosides, PDS, and PTS against the 3rd instar larvae were time and dose-dependent, with higher activities at 48 h. 100 mg/ml PDS had relative higher antifeedant activity (88.39 ± 3.43% in no-choice and 80.9±4.36% in choice) than total ginsenosides and PTS at all time intervals, except at 48 h in no-choice test. In further experiments, we found PPD ginsenosides (Rb1, Rb2, Rc, and Rd) had relative higher time and dose dependent antifeedant activities than PPT ginsenosides (Re and Rg1).

conclusionsOur results suggested the insecticidal action of total ginsenosides, PDS, and PTS on O. furnacalis. All ginsenosides, especially PDS, showed antifeedant and ovicidal activities against O. furnacalis.
