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

backgroundIdentifying environmentally friendly entomopathogenic microorganisms and using them as alternatives to chemical insecticides is crucial for advancing green agriculture.

resultsThree culturable Enterobacter bacterial strains (S-18, S-22, and S-30) with insecticidal activity against 3rd-instar diamondback moth (DBM, Plutella xylostella) were isolated from the gut of field-collected Spodoptera eixuga larvae. The lethal concentration 50 (LC

conclusionThree insect gut-resident bacterial strains with high larvicidal activity were identified in this study, and these strains have the potential to effectively manage DBM and reduce the reliance on chemical insecticides. © 2026 Society of Chemical Industry.
