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

Ephoron yunnanensis Zhou, 2002 is considered as a nomen nudum since only mentioned in an unpublished Ph.D. thesis and therefore not officially validated. This study validates the species based on specimens from China (Yunnan Province) and Thailand (Chiang Mai and Chiang Rai Provinces). The species is formally described here for the first time and illustrated. Our morphological evidence and COI data support its independent species status. Additionally, the egg of this species is described. Diagnostic characters, distributions, and keys for both the nymphal and imaginal stages of all known Thai Ephoron species are also provided.
