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

Butterflies and moths (Lepidoptera) are one of the most commonly found insect groups in museum collections. Yet many specimens still lack digital data and few digitization workflows are available. Here we present a digitization workflow for natural history collections that can be widely applicable for any museum or dried pinned-specimen collection of Lepidoptera. Our workflow consists of pre-imaging preparation, usage of a copy stand for imaging pinned specimens and data labels, image processing, and transcription, the latter two which utilize Python scripts for optimization.
