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 aim of the present study was to determine the paramphistomicidal efficacy of methyl [5-chloro-6-(1-naphthyloxy)-1H-benzimidazol-2-yl]carbamate (alpha-carbamate) in experimentally infected sheep. Sixteen crossbred rams were infected each with 600 metacercariae of Calicophoron calicophorum. Forty five days after infection, they were divided into four groups of four animals each. Groups 1 to 3 received compound alpha-carbamate at a dose of 12, 18, and 24 mg/kg b/w, respectively; group 4 serving as the nontreated control. Ten days after treatment, all animals were killed to obtain the rumen and collect, measure, and quantify the trematodes present. Efficacy was assessed as the percentage of trematode reduction of the treated groups relative to the nontreated control. The obtained efficacy indicated a percentage reduction of 86.7%, 97.5%, and 100% for groups 1, 2, and 3, respectively. This experimental compound showed high efficacy against 45-day-old C. calicophorum in experimentally infected sheep.
