Species diversity and spatial distribution of ixodid ticks on small ruminants in Greece.
Article in Parasitology research, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 14 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
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
A cross sectional field study on the distribution of Ixodidae ticks was carried out over two consecutive tick seasons (2012 and 2013) in small ruminants (309 farms) located in mainland and five islands of Greece. A total of 2108 ticks (1199 females, 908 males, and 1 nymph) were collected from sheep and goats. Two species of Rhipicephalus, two of Ixodes, five of Hyalomma, three of Haemaphysalis, and one of Dermacentor were detected. The species with the widest distribution were Rhipicephalus sanguineus s.l. (64.8 %), R. bursa (25.9 %), and Dermacentor marginatus (4.1 %), whereas the least frequently collected species were Ixodes ricinus, I. gibbosus, Haemaphysalis parva, H. sulcata, H. punctata, Hyalomma marginatum, H. excavatum, H. dromedarii, H. rufipes, and H. impeltatum representing together less than 5.3 % of the collections. R. sanguineus s.l. was the predominant species, while D. marginatus and I. gibbosus were restricted to the northeastern Aegean Sea islands. This is the first survey on tick fauna from mainland and islands in Greece.
