Molecular evolution of Trichuris muris isolated from different Muridae hosts in Europe.

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
A phylogeographic study was carried out of Trichuris muris, nematode parasitizing Murinae rodents from the Muridae family, isolated from four different hosts and from different geographical regions of Europe by amplification and sequencing of the ITS1-5.8S-ITS2 fragment of the ribosomal DNA. T. muris was found in the Apodemus sylvaticus, Apodemus flavicollis, Mus domesticus, and Rattus rattus rodents. The molecular results confirm the presence of DNA polymorphisms among T. muris isolates from Europe. The present study shows two clear-cut geographical and genetic lineages: one of them is widespread from northern Spain (Catalonia) to Denmark (Western European region), while the second is widespread in the Eastern European region (Croatia, Rumania, and Turkey). These two genotypes can be easily distinguished by a PCR-RFLP analysis of this sequence with the ApalI restriction enzyme. Moreover, networks and phylogenetic reconstructions also reveal that T. muris from various Murinae rodents did not differentiate according to the host species that they parasitize. Furthermore, T. muris isolated from The Canary Islands revealed a typical haplotype (H6) only present in The Canary Islands and not in continental Europe. It is suggested that one haplotype from La Gomera Island is the ancestor of T. muris in the Canary Islands.
