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

Tiger beetles serve as bioindicators of ecosystem health but are under increasing threat from habitat loss and population decline. Ex situ conservation via captive breeding offers promise for species lacking viable wild populations. We evaluated laboratory rearing from egg to adult for eight Korean tiger beetle species to determine the developmental period per developmental stage, mortality rates, larval burrow entrance size, and head-pronotum morphological characteristics under controlled laboratory conditions. High mortality (37.5-80%) occurred during the transition from the pre-pupa to pupa stage, suggesting that mass larval production is needed to offset losses. Reared-type adults of most tiger beetle species tended to be smaller in body length than wild-type adults. Species-specific behaviors (e.g., feeding habits in
