Molecular characterization of Cryptosporidium in pigs in central Vietnam.
Article in Parasitology research, 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
Little information is available on the epidemiology of Cryptosporidium in pigs in central Vietnam. The aims of this study were to investigate the prevalence and to characterize the genotype distribution of Cryptosporidium isolates in pigs in this region. A total of 193 pig fecal samples were screened for the presence of Cryptosporidium oocysts using the modified Ziehl-Neelsen staining method, and 28 (overall prevalence 14.5 %) were identified as positive by microscopic observation. Positive samples were further analyzed by polymerase chain reaction amplification and sequencing. Genetic identification based on the 18S ribosomal RNA and 70 kDa heat shock protein genes revealed that pigs in Vietnam are infected with two species/genotypes (Cryptosporidium suis and Cryptosporidium pig genotype II). This study is the first molecular characterization of Cryptosporidium in pigs in Vietnam. The presence of these host-adapted species/genotypes suggests that pigs may not pose a significant public health risk in this area. More extensive studies are necessary to ascertain the zoonotic potential of Cryptosporidium in porcine hosts in Vietnam.
