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
backgroundQuesting Ixodes ricinus ticks were collected in two urban parks (Železná studienka and Horský park) of the capital city of Slovakia, Bratislava, during two consecutive years in 2011 and 2012. A total of 932 ticks were analyzed for the presence of tick-borne agents: B. miyamotoi, B. burgdorferi s.l., A. phagocytophilum and R. helvetica.
resultsPCR analysis confirmed the presence of all pathogens at both localities. The overall infection prevalence of B. miyamotoi, B. burgdorferi s.l., A. phagocytophilum and R. helvetica was 0.75, 13.2, 5.6 and 8.9%, respectively. B. burgdorferi s.l. positive samples were represented by six genospecies. The most frequent one was B. afzelii followed by B. garinii and B. valaisiana.
conclusionOur study confirms the presence of I. ricinus ticks and at least nine tick-borne bacterial agents in city forest parks, which are used for recreational purposes. Ordination analysis revealed significant differences in the composition of pathogens with respect to study site location, time of season and ambient temperature, despite the fact that both sites are located relatively close to one another within the city.
