Lethal effect of blue light on Asian tiger mosquito, Aedes albopictus (Diptera: Culicidae).
Article in Scientific reports, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
In our previous studies, we found that blue light has a lethal effect on various insect species and demonstrated that the most effective wavelength to control the hygiene pest, the mosquito, Culex pipiens form molestus (Diptera: Culicidae), is ~ 420 nm through all developmental stages. The genera Aedes and Culex include many globally crucial hygiene pest species that transmit serious diseases to humans and animals. However, effective lethal wavelengths have been shown to differ among insect species. In this study, we investigated the lethal effects of blue light on the Asian tiger mosquito, Aedes albopictus, using light-emitting diodes. Blue-light irradiation had a lethal effect on the larvae, pupae, and adults of Ae. albopictus. In particular, the 417-nm blue-light wavelength had a strong lethal effect on the larvae, showing 100% mortality before pupation at the photon flux density of 10 × 10
