Detection of Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis in a sheep flock in Tuscany.
Article in Tropical animal health and production, 2015. 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
Paratuberculosis is an infectious disease which affects ruminants. In this work, a sheep flock in Garfagnana district (Tuscany, Italy) was examined by agar gel immune-diffusion (AGID) tests, culture, and PCR from feces, milk, tissue samples, and cheeses. At the first AGID test, 7/280 (2.5 %) animals were positive. From these animals, feces and milk samples were collected: 4/7 feces (57.14 %) and 2/7 milk samples (28.57 %) were positive to culture and 7/7 (100 %) feces samples and 1/7 milk samples (14.28 %) were positive to PCR; 2/4 (50 %) cheeses ripened for 14 days and 1/3 (33.33 %) cheese ripened for 20 days were positive to PCR, from which no viable microorganisms were isolated. Then, the AGID-positive animals were slaughtered and tissue samples were taken from one sheep with PCR-positive feces and milk: the liver, intestine, mesenteric lymph nodes, but not the spleen and mammary lymph nodes were positive to culture; all these samples were instead PCR-positive. After 1 year, a second AGID survey was performed on the remaining animals: 6/244 (2.45 %) subjects were positive to this test. Data obtained revealed the presence of paratuberculosis in a sheep population in Garfagnana.
