Ten simple rules for describing a new (parasite) species.
Article in International journal for parasitology. Parasites and wildlife, 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Describing a new parasite appears to be a complicated task because it is regulated by objective rules of the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature. Here are practical rules that will aid you in writing a new species description and publishing it successfully. The ten simple rules expose commonly occurring challenges and aim to improve the awareness of requirements for species descriptions.
