Prothoracicostatic Activity of the Ecdysis-Regulating Neuropeptide Crustacean Cardioactive Peptide (CCAP) in the Desert Locust.
Article in International journal of molecular sciences, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
Accurate control of innate behaviors associated with developmental transitions requires functional integration of hormonal and neural signals. Insect molting is regulated by a set of neuropeptides, which trigger periodic pulses in ecdysteroid hormone titers and coordinate shedding of the old cuticle during ecdysis. In the current study, we demonstrate that crustacean cardioactive peptide (CCAP), a structurally conserved neuropeptide described to induce the ecdysis motor program, also exhibits a previously unknown prothoracicostatic activity to regulate ecdysteroid production in the desert locust,
