Density and distribution of the flat mite (Brevipalpus yothersi) (Acari: Tenuipalpidae) on four Hibiscus varieties: do leaves tell the full story?

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 flat mite, Brevipalpus yothersi (Baker, 1949) is widely distributed in the southern United States. This mite is associated with a citrus leprosis virus ((CiLV-C2) Cilevirus colombiaense strain hibiscus) infecting ornamental hibiscus (Hibiscus rosa-sinensis) in Florida and Hawaii. Because hibiscus is a highly traded ornamental plant, CiLV-C2 has the potential to spread. In laboratory experiments, the abundance and distribution of B. yothersi were studied on four varieties of tropical hibiscus. Plants, grown from cuttings, were infested with female mites, and held in environmental chambers (25 °C, 75% RH). After 3 months, the plants were divided into strata representing the top, middle and bottom of the plant. All mites (including eggs) found on the leaves and woody parts (main stems and side branches) were counted, and the surface area of each part calculated. The number and surface area of leaves and woody parts varied between hibiscus varieties; however, the differences between varieties with respect to total number of mites/plant and mites/cm
