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
introductionUDP-glycosyltransferases (UGTs) are key Phase II detoxification enzymes in insects, playing a crucial role in resistance to a variety of insecticides, including diamides. Cyantraniliprole (CYA) is a systemic diamide insecticide with high toxicity against Bemisia tabaci, a major global agricultural pest transmitting over 200 plant viruses. While B. tabaci has developed medium-level resistance to CYA, the role of UGTs in this resistance remains poorly understood.
objectivesThis study aimed to investigate the role of UGTs in B. tabaci resistance to CYA and further elucidate the underlying mechanisms.
methodsSynergism bioassays and enzymatic activity analyses were conducted to assess the contribution of UGTs to CYA resistance. RNA sequencing and RT-qPCR were employed to identify differentially expressed BtUGT genes associated with resistance. The functions of UGTs and the UDP-glucose (UDPG) biosynthesis pathway in CYA resistance were confirmed through RNA interference and transgenic Drosophila melanogaster lines. The metabolites of CYA in the resistant strain were identified using LC-MS/MS. A cross-resistance study to chlorantraniliprole was performed to further confirm the role of UGTs in the diamide resistance of B. tabaci.
resultsHigher expression of UGTs represents a key metabolic resistance mechanism of B. tabaci to CYA. Specifically, overexpression of BtUGT352B2 and BtUGT352F1, along with the UDP-glucose biosynthesis pathway, contributed significantly to resistance. Four glycoside metabolites of CYA were putatively identified in resistant whiteflies. Significant cross-resistance to chlorantraniliprole confirmed that the UGT-mediated metabolism plays a crucial role in anthranilic diamide resistance in B. tabaci.
conclusionThis research advances our understanding of UGT-mediated insecticide resistance mechanisms and provides valuable insights for the development of more sustainable pest management strategies to combat pesticide resistance.
