A novel method for quantifying galleries of bark beetles and associates.
Article in Journal of insect science (Online), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
Bark beetles (Coleoptera: Curculionidae: Scolytinae) are some of the most destructive forest insect pests in the world. Methods literature is largely limited to trapping, including pheromones and volatiles, and remote sensing. Conversely, little work has been done on methods for quantifying bark beetle development under the bark. Assessing larval development involves marking and measuring each gallery using rulers or mapping tools, which takes much time and effort. We developed a novel graphite rubbing method on rice paper to quickly and accurately map larval bark beetle development under the bark of infested pine logs. We were then able to transpose the log surface onto a 2D plane, allowing photography and image analysis. We also describe alternative methods tested that were not successful. This method allows researchers to quickly collect data on gallery area and, therefore, larval development to have an additional piece of information to better predict and manage future outbreaks.
