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

Since 2016, the invasive insect Spodoptera frugiperda (J. E. Smith) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) from the Americas has made maize production unattainable without pesticides in parts of Sub-Saharan Africa and Asia. To counteract this pest, farmers often resort to the use hazardous pesticides. This study aimed to investigate botanicals, microbials, and semi-synthetic insecticides in Ghana for pest control without harming local ecosystems. Under laboratory and on-station conditions, the present study evaluated the acute and sublethal responses of S. frugiperda to: (i) Pieris rapae Granulovirus (PrGV) + Bacillus thuringiensis sub sp. kurstaki (Btk) 5 WP, (ii) Btk + monosultap 55 WP, (iii) ethyl palmitate 5 SC, (iv) azadirachtin 0.3 SC, (v) acetamiprid (20 g/l) + λ-cyhalothrin (15 g/l) 35 EC, (vi) acetamiprid (30 g/l) + indoxacarb (16 g/l) 46 EC, and (vii) emamectin benzoate 1.9 EC. The results showed that at 96 hours post-exposure emamectin benzoate-based formulation has the highest acute larvicidal effect with lower LC50 values of 0.019 mL/L. However, the results suggested strong sublethal effects of PrGV + Btk, azadirachtin, and ethyl palmitate on the bionomics of S. frugiperda. Two seasons on-station experiments, showed that the semi-synthetic emamectin benzoate and the bioinsecticide PrGV + Btk are good candidates for managing S. frugiperda. The promising efficacy of emamectin benzoate and PrGV + Btk on the bionomics of S. frugiperda in the laboratory and on-station demonstrated that they are viable options for managing this pest.
