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

Host expansion facilitates tephritid flies to expand their ranges. Unraveling the mechanisms of host expansion will help to efficiently control these pests. Our previous works showed mitochondrial complex I genes Ndufs1, Ndufs3, and Ndufa7 being upregulated during host expansion of Bactrocera tau (Walker), one of the highly hazardous species of tephritids. However, their roles in the host expansion of B. tau remain unknown. Here, using clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR) / CRISPR-associated nuclease 9 (Cas9) editing system for the first time, a stable homozygous Ndufa7 strain (Btndufa7
