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

The order Hemiptera s. lat. (=Homoptera + Heteroptera), comprising approximately 140 families and 70,000 species, is the largest order among hemimetabolous insects in terms of species diversity. A key trait shared among these insects is their specialized piercing-sucking mouthparts, which have been considered an important factor in their diversification. However, knowledge of how these characteristic hemipteran mouthparts form during embryogenesis remains limited and biased toward model species. In this study, we observed the embryonic development of the heteropteran insect Appasus japonicus (Belostomatidae). We divided its embryonic development into 10 stages and provided a detailed description. Additionally, we examined its developmental processes and compared them with the embryogenesis of closely related groups. As a result, we confirmed that (1) the maxillary plate, one of the structures forming the heteropteran mouthparts, is homologous to the maxillary palp, and (2) most parts of the stylet-like mandibles and maxillae are housed within the labial palp.
