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

The aggregation of locusts from solitary to gregarious phases is crucial for the formation of devastating locust plagues. Locust management requires research on the prevention of aggregation or alternative and greener solutions to replace insecticide use, and insect-derived microRNAs (miRNAs) show the potential for application in pest control. Here, we performed a genome-wide screen of the differential expression of miRNAs between solitary and gregarious locusts and showed that miR-8-5p controls the γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA)/glutamate functional balance by directly targeting glutamate decarboxylase (Gad). Blocking glutamate-GABA neurotransmission by miR-8-5p overexpression or
