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

Semiochemicals are chemicals that mediate inter- and intraspecific interactions between insects. Recently, these chemicals have begun to be investigated as an alternative for the management of the Central American locust, Schistocerca piceifrons piceifrons (Walker, 1870), a pest that can cause substantial damage to crops, pastures, and native vegetation. A suitable method for investigating the range of semiochemicals present in Central American locust is surface washing in organic solvents. In the work described here, the extraction of chemical compounds was carried out with hexane in a 1:10 (w/v) ratio, in 2 resting periods (1 and 24 h) and 2 stages of Central American locust development (young adult and adult in reproductive stage). By Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry, 17 chemical compounds previously identified with semiochemical potential in other insects were detected. The study of semiochemicals in Central American locust offers the opportunity to identify specific chemical compounds that may have the potential to implement management alternatives for this pest. Specific studies of each compound detected in this work are needed to elucidate whether they have semiochemical activity and potential to combat the pest and reduce the environmental damage caused by the application of synthetic chemical products.
