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

Musca domestica is one of the major cosmopolitan pests in livestock facilities because it can be both a nuisance and a vector of pathogens to animals. Currently, treatment of animal manure with insect growth regulator (IGR) insecticides is among major practices to control M. domestica throughout the year over wide-ranging environmental temperatures. Fluctuation in daily or seasonal temperature is one of the most established factors impacting toxicity of insecticides against insect pests. In this study, the effect of posttreatment temperature (range, 20-36 °C) on the toxicity of eight IGRs: five chitin synthesis inhibitors (cyromazine, diflubenzuron, lufenuron, novaluron, triflumuron), two juvenile hormone analogs (methoprene, pyriproxyfen), and one ecdysone agonist (methoxyfenozide), was investigated against M. domestica. The toxicity of lufenuron and novaluron increased by 1.78 times over the range of 20-28 °C, and 2.25 and 1.83 times, respectively, over the range of 28-36 °C, with an overall increase by 4.00 and 3.26 times, respectively (i.e., positive temperature coefficient). In contrast, the toxicity of diflubenzuron, pyriproxyfen, and triflumuron decreased by 1.43, 1.89, and 2.10 times, respectively, over the range of 20-28 °C, and 1.70, 2.00, and 1.95 times, respectively, over the range of 28-36 °C, with an overall decrease by 2.43, 3.78, and 4.10 times, respectively. The toxicity of cyromazine, methoprene, and methoxyfenozide did not change significantly. Overall, these data will help stakeholders to choose appropriate insecticides for M. domestica control depending on the prevailing environmental temperature and to avoid misuse of insecticides that ultimately lead to environmental safety.
