Perspectives on Odor-Based Control of Tsetse Flies in Africa.
Review in Frontiers in physiology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
Tsetse-transmitted trypanosomiases are among the most neglected tropical diseases in sub-Sahara Africa. Although all tsetse species are susceptible to trypanosome infections, their differential attraction/feeding preferences for different wildlife, domestic animals, and/or humans constitute critical determinants of trypanosomes species they predominantly transmit. Artificial bait technologies, based on long-range tsetse olfactory responses to natural cues emitted by preferred hosts and blends of synthetic versions that mimic these cues, have successfully been applied in attractant-odor-based ("pull" tactic) reduction of field populations of some tsetse species. Olfactory attribute associated with active avoidance of tsetse-refractory non-hosts has similarly been exploited in design of repellent-odor-based ("push" tactic) protection of livestock. These tactics have opened possibility of spatially strategic deployment of the two sets of odor baits in "push-pull" tactics. Possibility of developing blends with enhanced attraction and repellence compared with those associated with savannah tsetse fly hosts and non-hosts, respectively, have been explored, where structure activity and blends of different components generated two novel blends. The studies evaluated structure activity and blends of different components. One based on attractive constituents associated with buffalo (
