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

The main objective of the present study is to introduce a new and ecologically safe method for managing the rice weevil, Sitophilus oryzae. Therefore, the Agave americana leaf extract's phytochemical profile, and its insecticidal activity against the adults of S. oryzae were evaluated. The A. americana leaf extract was screened for the following phytochemicals: total phenolics (14.70 ± 0.31 mg GAE/g FW), total flavonoids (5.15 ± 0.18 mg RE/g FW) and saponins (10.32 ± 0.20 mg OAE/g FW). The HPLC-ESI/TOF-MS analysis results revealed that flavonoid glycosides (kaempferol, quercetin, and isorhamnetin derivates) were the major phenolic compounds of the A. americana leaf extract. In addition, the GC-MS analysis identified n-alkanes (77.77%) as significant compounds of the lipophilic fraction from the leaf extract. Moreover, the insecticidal potential was assessed through contact and repellent bioassays towards the rice weevil adults. The LD
