Altered Expression of Chemosensory and Odorant Binding Proteins in Response to Fungal Infection in the Red Imported Fire Ant,
Article in Frontiers in physiology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 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
Social insects have evolved acute mechanisms for sensing and mitigating the spread of microbial pathogens within their communities that include complex behaviors such as grooming and sanitation. Chemical sensing involves detection and transport of olfactory and other chemicals that are mediated by at least two distinct classes of small molecular weight soluble proteins known as chemosensory- and odorant binding proteins (CSPs and OBPs, respectively) that exist as protein families in all insects. However, to date, a systematic examination of the expression of these genes involved in olfactory and other pathways to microbial infection has yet to be reported. The red imported fire ant,
