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

This research evaluated the AedesTech Mosquito Home System (AMHS), an ovitrap employing autodissemination with pyriproxyfen, to monitor and manage mosquito populations. It involved 3 studies of the AMHS: a baseline study, an effectiveness study, and an autodissemination study on Aedes (Diptera: Culicidae) mosquitoes. Forty AHMS units filled with water were deployed for the baseline study. During the effectiveness study, 40 untreated AMHS units with water were placed alongside 40 AMHS units treated with Mosquito Home Aqua (MHAQ) solution, the retail solution used for AMHS. The autodissemination study featured 40 AMHS units treated with MHAQ alongside 40 control AMHS units without MHAQ, together with 25 Aedes aegypti (Linnaeus) larvae. Notably, treated traps in the effectiveness study exhibited a significant reduction in the Ovitrap Index (OI) compared to the baseline traps in the baseline study. The effectiveness study validated AMHS's efficacy, with treated traps displaying a significantly lower OI than untreated counterparts (P < 0.05). The study also showed a decrease in the percentage of egg hatching and percentage of adult emergence in treated traps compared to untreated traps. Autodissemination was evident, marked by a significant percentage of adult emergence decrease of Ae. aegypti larvae, without affecting sex ratios. It strongly suggests that AMHS can effectively reduce Aedes populations through direct contact and autodissemination without affecting sex ratios.
