Characterisation of the mitochondrial genome of Parafilaroides normani (lungworm) of Arctocephalus pusillus doriferus (Australian fur seal).
Article in Parasitology research, 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Parafilaroides normani is a metastrongyloid nematode of clinical relevance in some species of pinnipeds. The taxonomy, biology and epidemiology of this and related species are not well understood. Mitochondrial (mt) DNA can provide markers for studies in these areas, but genetic data are scant. Here, we characterised the mt genome of P. normani. Adults of this nematode were collected from Arctocephalus pusillus doriferus from Phillip Island, Victoria, Australia, and genomic DNA was extracted from individuals. The complete mt genome was amplified from DNA from a single adult male by long-range PCR, as two overlapping amplicons (~5 and ~10 kb), and then sequenced employing 454 technology (Roche). The mt genome was assembled from reads of ~300 bp and annotated using an established bioinformatic pipeline. This circular mt genome is 13,411 bp and contains two ribosomal RNA, 12 protein-coding and 22 transfer RNA genes, consistent with those of other lungworms studied to date. This mt genome is intended to provide a source of genetic markers for future investigations of the biology, epidemiology and systematics of Parafilaroides spp. and related lungworms.
