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

Entomopathogenic nematodes (EPNs) have a specialized infective juvenile stage (IJ) that is mobile and has the capability to seek insect hosts to penetrate their haemocoel. EPNs are primarily applied to soil as biological control agents; thus, the IJs must move through the soil to find and infect a host. Soil characteristics are known to be an important factor that can affect the efficiency of EPN movement behavior. Previous research has shown that exposure to ascaroside pheromones can enhance EPN movement and infectivity in soil. The ability of pheromones to enhance EPN efficacy was recently demonstrated under field conditions in a pecan orchard. However, prior to our research, it was unknown whether different soils have differential effects on pheromone enhanced EPN efficacy. In different soils, we tested the biocontrol efficacy of
