Integrated Pest Management Education: a Video-Game to Improve Management of Drosophila suzukii, Soft-Skin Fruit Pest.
Article in Neotropical entomology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
The transition from the conventional global agriculture to an agroecological model poses a teaching and learning challenge to facilitate the wide variety of practices and the many biological processes involved. Games, such as board games, video-games, or mobile apps, are elements that may be used for teaching agroecology, environmental education, or animal conservation. Here, we present a video-game designed to contribute to integrated pest management education. The Spotted-Stop-It video-game is a single-player game which encourages participation, disseminates knowledge on the pest problem and its potential solutions (i.e., harvest frequency, sanitation, and management of alternative non-crop plants), and highlights the importance of good practices from an agroecological perspective at the farmer scale. In a farm-tech regional fair, we presented the game to its users and performed a simple retrospective survey. The survey results showed that most participants did not know about the fly prior to playing the game (34 ind., 68%), but were able to recognize the species among other flies after playing (23 ind., ~ 65%). Also, 21 individuals correctly responded about the effects of this pest on soft-skin fruits ("the fly lays eggs inside the fruit"). The training of future generations on new insect invasions and IPM practices with elements of their own environment may prove to be important to transmit concepts and practices at the service of sustainable crop protection.
