The costs of the immune memory within generations.
Article in Die Naturwissenschaften, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
Immune response is evolutionary costly, but it is not clear whether these costs affect energetic expenditure (short-term cost), growth (medium-term cost), or reproduction (long-term cost). We tested the costs of immune memory in Tenebrio molitor against Metarhizium brunneum. To do this, we used two groups of T. molitor larvae: (a) the control group, which was injected first with Tween solution and 10 days later with M. brunneum and (b) the memory group, which was first injected with M. brunneum and 10 days later with M. brunneum. Compared to controls, larvae of the memory group were more likely to survive, but they also had an increased metabolic rate (CO
