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

Euschistus heros (Fabricius) (Hemiptera: Pentatomidae) is Brazil's most significant soybean stink bug pest, with outbreaks well-documented across various regions. However, during a collection expedition in soybean crops in Amapá State, Euschistus atrox (Westwood) was identified as the predominant Euschistus species in these areas. In this study, we characterized E. atrox both morphologically and molecularly, comparing it with E. heros. A laboratory experiment was designed to compare reproductive traits between the two species, and test for interspecific crosses. Female E. atrox exhibited lower fecundity compared to E. heros. The most surprising finding was that intercrosses between E. heros and E. atrox resulted in fertile offspring. We highlight the implications of these findings for species evolution and pest management in this critical group of insect pests.
