Effect of geographical location, insect type and cooking method on the nutritional composition of insects consumed in South Africa.
Article in Journal of insects as food and feed, 2021. 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
Edible insects may be a sustainable source of protein and some other nutrients, especially for low-economic-status communities. The current study determined the influence of insect type, geographic location, and cooking method on the nutritional composition of insects. The investigation would contribute to the maximal derivation of the nutritional benefits of insects. Dried samples of four insect types,
