Genetic identification of Fasciola hepatica by ITS-2 sequence of nuclear ribosomal DNA in Turkey.
Article in Parasitology research, 2009. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 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
The trematodes of the genus Fasciola are the common liver flukes of a range species of animals and have a global geographical distribution. They can generally be distinguished on the basic of their morphology. ITS-2 ribosomal DNA sequences have been used to characterize the liver flukes as a specific marker from different geographical regions which include F. hepatica, F. gigantica, and an intermediate Fasciola. To determine the phylogenetic location of F. hepatica of Turkey origin based on ITS-2 rDNA molecular data, adult F. hepatica trematodes were collected from the liver naturally infected sheep from different geographical locations in Turkey (Elazig, Malatya, Samsun). ITS-2 rDNA were cloned, sequenced, and compared with published sequences ITS-2 rDNA of other species of trematodes in the family Fasciolidae using the GenBank Blast program. The only one ITS-2 sequence had defined for the examined Turkish F. hepatica samples. The phylogenetic trees constructed based upon the ITS-2 sequences from Turkey by multiple tree-building methods in MEGA revealed a close relationship with isolates of F. hepatica, F. gigantica, and Fasciola sp. The present study is the first demonstration of the existence of F. hepatica in sheep in Turkey by the genetic approach using ITS-2 rDNA as genetic marker.
