Paracoccidioides spp. in Soil from the Pampa Biome in Southern Brazil.
Article in Current microbiology, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
High rates of paracoccidioidomycosis disease and infection have been recently reported in southern Brazil. However, the knowledgment about the ecoepidemiology of Paracoccidioides spp. in the region is limited, therefore, this study aimed to evaluate the presence of Paracoccidioides spp. DNA in soil samples from a rural area in Southern Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil. Thirty pools of soil samples from Bagé, RS (31º19'53"S 54º06'25"W) were submitted to physicochemical analysis, and to fungal DNA extraction by Norgen Biotek® Kit (Thorold, Canada), followed by Nested PCR technique with ITS4 and ITS5 as external primers, and PBITS-E and PBITS-T as internal primers. DNA amplification products of about 424 bp compatible with Paracoccidioides spp. were detected in eight (26.7%) of the 30 pools of samples, being three were sequenced and identified as P. brasiliensis. Positive soils were characterized by high levels of humidity, organic matter, basic saturation, and pH. This study shows for the first time the presence of Paracoccidioides spp. DNA at soils from the Brazilian Pampa Biome, proving that people living in those areas are exposed to the main agent of paracoccidioidomycosis.
