Experiments and Analysis of Mosquito Flight Behaviors in a Wind Tunnel: An Introduction.
Article in Cold Spring Harbor protocols, 2024. 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
Mosquitoes detect and navigate to important resources, like a host, using combinations of different sensory stimuli. The relative importance of the sensory cues can change as the mosquito gets closer to their target. Other factors, both internal and external, can also influence the mosquito behavior. A mechanistic understanding of these sensory stimuli, and how they impact mosquito navigation, can now be readily studied using wind tunnels and associated computer vision systems. In this introduction, we present a behavioral paradigm using a wind tunnel for flight behavior analysis. The wind tunnel's large size with its associated cameras and software system for analysis of the mosquito flight tracks can be sophisticated and sometimes cost-prohibitive. Nevertheless, the wind tunnel's flexibility in allowing the testing of multimodal stimuli and scaling of environmental stimuli makes it possible to reproduce conditions from the field and test them in the laboratory, while also allowing the observation of natural flight kinematics.
