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

Entomopathogenic fungi (EPF) are promising eco-friendly alternatives to chemical insecticides against various insect pests. We assessed the efficacy of different Beauveria bassiana (Bals.-Criv.) Vuill. strains against Brevicoryne brassicae (L.), a major pest of Brassica crops under both laboratory and field conditions. The virulence and endophytic properties of three strains of B. bassiana, the commercial strain GHA, the endemic one KA14 from the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), and GxABT-1 from Belgium, were assessed under laboratory conditions. Under field conditions in eastern DRC, the efficacy of the B. bassiana GHA was evaluated compared to that of a conventional insecticide. In vitro, the lethal time 50 (LT
