1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

The Gulf Coast tick Amblyomma maculatum Koch is increasingly relevant to medical and veterinary communities as human infection rates of Rickettsia parkeri rise, the risk of introduction of Ehrlichia ruminantium increases, and the range of this tick expands into the densely populated Mid-Atlantic region of the United States. We report on the results of five years of field surveillance to better describe the ecology of A. maculatum in newly established populations in southeastern Virginia. We document habitat preferences, host preferences, and the phenology of the adult human-biting life stage. We discuss key ecological factors needed for A. maculatum establishment and the influence of the successional process and anthropogenic activities on the persistence of A. maculatum populations in Virginia.
