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

Transgenic cotton expressing the toxin Cry1Ac from Bacillus thuringiensis L. (Bt) is widely cultivated in Pakistan after its formal approval in 2010. The exposure of the local target pests to the Cry1Ac endotoxin for this duration might have changed the baseline susceptibility. To probe the status of resistance in one of the main target pests, Helicoverpa armigera, field-collected larvae were reared in the lab for conducting leaf fed bioassays. Twenty-six cotton accessions collected from farmers, including 25 Bt-cotton and one non-Bt, were tested to quantify the level of Cry1Ac, an insecticidal crystalline protein (ICP), in leaves of lower, middle and upper canopies of plants. The concentration of ICP was tested through Enzyme-linked Immunosorbent Assay and found significantly variable (P < 0.01) between and within accessions. The highest mean expression was observed in Accession-2 and Accession-4, while the lowest in Accession-21 and Accession-19. Among fresh leaf tissues from different parts of the plant, the highest mean expression was recorded at 60 days after sowing in upper canopy leaves of cotton accessions, which decreased in lower parts of the plant with the lowest mean expression in lower canopy leaves. Laboratory bioassays, to calculate lethal dose, for H. armigera showed that LD
