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

backgroundThe flighted spongy moth complex (FSMC) lays egg masses not only on host plants but also various artificial structures, such as, cargo, vehicles, and ships. Thus, preventing the transmission of these egg masses is an international challenge. Their eggs are covered with thick hair covering that act as a barrier to insecticides thus making them ineffective. A volatile gas may be able to carry toxic substances past this barrier to the eggs. In this study, we evaluated the insecticidal effect of the highly volatile allyl isothiocyanate (AITC) on Lymantria dispar egg masses and compared it with that of two conventional insecticides containing permethrin, fenpropathrin, and clothianidin.

resultsIn the two conventional insecticide treatments, approximately 50% of the eggs survived when the hairy covering was not removed. In contrast, all eggs, with or without hairy covering, did not hatch after AITC treatment. The LC

conclusionAITC has a lethal effect against FSMC egg masses and may be applied for the extirpation of eggs/egg masses of various other organisms, besides FSMC. © 2025 The Author(s). Pest Management Science published by John Wiley & Sons Ltd on behalf of Society of Chemical Industry.
