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

Thiamethoxam (TMX), a second-generation neonicotinoid, is extensively used to control numerous pests that infest crops. We investigated the effects of TMX (10, 20, 30, 40, and 50 μg/mL for 24, 48, 72, and 96 h) on biomarkers such as antioxidant enzymes (superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase (CAT)); malondialdehyde (MDA), protein, lipid, and carbohydrate levels; micronucleus formation; and total hemocyte count in a model organism, Galleria mellonella L. SOD and CAT activities significantly decreased after 72 and 96 h of treatment at all TMX concentrations compared with control. MDA level increased following treatment with all TMX doses, with the exception of that following treatment with the lowest dose (10 μg/mL) at all tested treatment durations. Lipid and carbohydrate levels significantly decreased following treatment with high doses of TMX (40 and 50 μg/mL) after 48, 72, and 96 h. Micronucleated cell number significantly increased following treatment with all TMX doses at all tested treatment durations, except with 10 μg/mL of TMX for 24 h, when compared with control. During the first 72 h, total hemocyte count significantly decreased following treatment with 20-, 30-, 40-, and 50-μg/mL TMX; however, it was significantly reduced at all doses of TMX after 96 h. These results suggest that TMX can induce immunotoxicity, oxidative stress, and genotoxicity in a potential target and also in the model organism, G. mellonella. In addition, our study provides additional information regarding the prospective toxic effects of TMX.
