Gut microbiota influences feeding behavior via changes in olfactory receptor gene expression in Colorado potato beetles.
Article in Frontiers in microbiology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
The Colorado potato beetle (CPB) is an internationally recognized plant quarantine pest that causes serious losses to potato agricultural production. The gut microbiota plays an important role in its growth and development, and the olfactory system plays an important role in insect feeding behavior. The gut microbiota is known to be capable of inducing changes in the olfactory systems of insects. However, the way these associated gut microbes influence the feeding-related behaviors of CPBs remains unclear. To explore the relationship between them, fresh potato leaves immersed in a mixture of five antibiotics (tetracycline, penicillin, ofloxacin, ciprofloxacin, and ampicillin) at specific concentrations for 1 h were fed to adult CPBs to reduce the abundance of gut microbes. We found that the feeding behavior of CPBs was significantly affected by the gut microbiota and that
