Availability of Using Honeybees and Hive Products as Bioindicators of Ambient Pesticide Exposure in Taiwan.
Article in Toxics, 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
Honeybees and hive products could be used as bioindicators of pesticide exposure in surrounding areas, but the associations have rarely been examined. We collected samples of bees, hive products and environmental dust from 12 apiaries during the blooming season in eastern Taiwan and assessed the relationships between pesticides in apiarian samples and the environment. Samples were analyzed for 14 pesticides using gas or liquid chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry. Sick bees, dead bees, bee pollen, beeswax and environmental dust in the outer rings (>150 m) surrounding the apiaries were contaminated with high levels of pesticides (mean concentration: >270 ng/g in total). In terms of concentrations of all pesticides, insecticides, herbicides and fungicides, most apiarian sample matrices were significantly correlated with environmental dust within a range of 2.5 km (
