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

Herbivores have evolved distinct strategies to cope with plant defenses prior to becoming a pest. Some evolved resistance to toxic compounds; others suppress host toxin production. These traits seem to co-occur within herbivore species, particularly among spider mites, which are major pests in many crops. The intraspecific variation within the spider mites is a model for adaptive pest evolution on crops such as tomato. Empirical data collected from nonsolanaceous wild host plants suggest that natural populations predominantly comprise individuals capable of inducing tomato defenses, while a small proportion suppress these defenses. Additionally, resistant individuals are observed only rarely within these populations. This study aimed to investigate the presence of these traits within populations adapted to tomato plants. Here,
