Serological survey of Paracoccidioidomycosis in sheep.
Article in Mycopathologia, 2012. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 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 objective of this study was to evaluate the prevalence of antibodies against Paracoccidioides brasiliensis in sheep from Guarapuava, Paraná State, Brazil. The seroepidemiological study was carried out in 262 sheep. The samples were analyzed by ELISA and immunodiffusion test using P. brasiliensis gp43 and exoantigen as antigens, respectively. Initially, two sheep were immunized with P. brasiliensis to evaluate whether contact with the fungal cells could induce a humoral immune response against gp43 and exoantigen from P. brasiliensis. Both animals produced antibodies against gp43 and exoantigen, the main antigens used for diagnosis and seroepidemiology of paracoccidioidomycosis. A reactivity of 37% was observed to the P. brasiliensis gp43 antigen by ELISA although no reactivity had been observed by the immunodiffusion test. Sheep under extensive grazing system showed higher frequency of positivity to P. brasiliensis (P ≤ 0.05) than those under intensive and semi-intensive systems. These data suggest that sheep may be a useful epidemiological marker of P. brasiliensis presence in the environment and reinforce that contact with soil is an important risk factor for infection.
