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

backgroundDrosophila suzukii is an invasive pest causing high losses of agricultural crops. Conventional treatment strategies are considered problematic for their high risk of inducing resistance and environmental harm. Photodynamic Inactivation (PDI) is based on the photosensitizer-mediated and light-dependent generation of reactive oxygen species. Natural and food-grade photosensitizers, such as the food additive sodium magnesium chlorophyllin (Chl, E140), have been proven effective against microbial pathogens and several agricultural pests. The aim of this study is to assess whether the principle of Chl-based PDI of D. suzukii could be transferred from laboratory towards practical conditions.

resultsWe prove that D. suzukii is photokilled after feeding on 5 mM Chl with 3% sucrose (98.4% median moribundity, 9 h drug to light interval, 78.9 J/cm

conclusionOur findings demonstrate that Chl-based PDI could be harnessed as a safe and effective alternative for the management of D. suzukii pests. © 2025 The Author(s). Pest Management Science published by John Wiley & Sons Ltd on behalf of Society of Chemical Industry.
