Molecular characterization of Blastocystis in cattle in Turkey.
Article in Parasitology research, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 14 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
Blastocystis genus exist in a wide variety of hosts, including humans, birds, insects, annelids, amphibians, fish, and mammals. PCR-based molecular diagnostic methods have been successfully used to detect Blastocystis spp. in feces, and small subunit ribosomal ribonucleic acid (SSU rRNA) gene-based subtyping is the preferred method for diagnosis. There has been discussion about the subtypes of Blastocystis spp. which has been detected so far. To date, 26 different subtypes have been reported. The aim of this study was to determine the existence and diversity of Blastocystis spp. in cattle. In our study, a total of 80 stool samples were collected from cows and calves at 13 different farms in Burdur and one farm in Aydın. Using molecular method, a total of 9 samples out of 80 samples were found to be positive (11.25%) for Blastocystis. As a result of sequence analysis of Blastocystis positive samples, the subtype 14 was detected on seven samples, while in the other two samples, Blastocystis subtype 10 was identified. The ST10 and ST14 subtypes are commonly reported in animals but not isolated from human. Our analyses showed genetic differences among Blastocystis subtypes. Our study is the first Blastocystis subtyping study from cattle in Turkey.
