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 new myxobolid, Thelohanellus gabori (Myxosporea: Myxozoa) parasitizing gill filaments of Crossocheilus latius (Hamilton, 1822) has been described using light microscopy, histopathology, and molecular analyses. A total of 80 live specimens of C. latius were examined, revealing a prevalence of infection of 25.66% (21 of 80 fish sampled). The plasmodia were of intrafilamental epithelial type, FE as per their location in the gill filaments of the fish host. The plasmodia were cylindrical and creamy-white, 1.0-1.7 mm in diameter containing about 500-700 myxospores. The myxospores had a mean length of 8.56 ± 0.21 μm, width 3.66 ± 0.08 μm, mean length of polar capsule 5.50 ± 0.28 μm, and width 2.50 ± 0.14 μm. The 18S rDNA of Thelohanellus gabori sp. nov. (accession number KX757025) clustered phylogenetically with other related myxozoan parasites being T. pathankotensis and T. boggoti the most closely related species with 97% sequence similarity followed by T. sp. FCO with 89% sequence similarity. The mean abundance (gill plasmodial index) was calculated by counting the number of plasmodia on each side of the gill apparatus per host and was found to be 4 indicating severe infection causing fusion of many large-sized plasmodia in the gill filament. During the present study, it was found that the phylogenetic tree for Thelohanellus spp. depends upon the tissue location, vertebrate host group, and geographical region.
