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

The genotype of Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato was detected in 371 out of 1244 ticks. Borrelia determination was based on partial sequencing of the 16S rRNA gene and real-time polymerase chain reactions for identification and quantitation of ospA and recA genes. Different Borrelia spp. were identified; B. garinii in 40% ticks followed by B. afzelii (36.3%), B. burgdorferi sensu stricto (12.9%), B. valaisiana (3.5%), B. lusitaniae (0.8%), B. bissettii (0.5%) and B. miyamotoi-like (0.5%). Cultivation of 30 borrelia strains in BSK-H medium, among them B. valaisiana, B. bissettii-like and B. miyamotoi-like strains was unique in Czechia. Calibrated microfluidic-based quantification showed differences in the concentration of the nucleic acids and molar mass of the outer surface proteins of different Borrelia spp. with standard sensitivity and specificity and was helpful for their identification. The outer surface protein OspA was absent in B. miyamotoi-like and the OspB protein in B. valaisiana, B. lusitaniae and in three subtypes of B. garinii.
