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

Insecticidal treatment is a common practice for the control of stored-product insect pests. Most studies are focused on the direct effects of insecticides on target insects, while there are no data on the indirect effects on adults in terms of progeny fitness. This study deals with the effect of pirimiphos-methyl on adults of Tribolium castaneum (Coleoptera: Tenebrionidae), investigating their exposure time cost to progeny fitness. For this purpose, females of T. castaneum were exposed for 1, 3, 8, 16, 24, and 72 h to pirimiphos-methyl and progeny birth or death rates were calculated. The fecundity, as well as the survival of progeny, was affected by the parental exposure to the insecticide. When females were exposed for 1 and 3 h to pirimiphos-methyl, the net reproductive rate of the progeny was 4.1 and 4.3 females/female, respectively, which did not statistically differ with the progeny in control treatment (6.3 females/female). Further exposure time to pirimiphos-methyl affected significantly the progeny net reproductive rate, where the lowest value was observed at the 72-h exposure time (0.97 females/female). The intrinsic rate of increase, as well as the finite rate of increase, did not differ between the progeny of the control treatment (0.029 females/female/day and 1.029, respectively) and the progeny of exposed females at 1 h (0.021 females/female/day and 1.021, respectively) or 3 h (0.023 females/female/day and 1.023, respectively). By increasing the time of exposure to pirimiphos-methyl, a detrimental effect to progeny fitness was revealed based on the values of the intrinsic and finite rate of increase. The lowest values of these parameters were observed at the 72-h exposure time (0.001 females/female/day and 1.000, respectively). The same trend was observed in the values of the doubling time. In contrast, the mean generation time did not statistically differ between control and all insecticide treatments. The fact that the exposure of parental females of T. castaneum to pirimiphos-methyl negatively affects the demographic parameters of their offspring production should be seriously taken into account when management strategies are applied against this notorious stored-product insect species since it could reduce the repeatedly insecticidal applications in storage facilities.
