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

Recent surveys at slaughterhouses confirmed the presence of three different species of Echinococcus granulosus sensu lato in France: E. granulosus sensu stricto, E. ortleppi, and E. canadensis G6/7. The latter species was only identified on the French Mediterranean island of Corsica, with a high prevalence in pigs and wild boar. In order to investigate the life cycle of E. canadensis in this region, dog feces were collected in 31 municipalities, mainly from individual kennels. The analysis of fecal samples from 259 dogs by multiplex real-time PCR shows no infection by E. granulosus sensu stricto, but three dogs were infected by E. canadensis G6/7. Genetic analyses of mitochondrial genes (cox1, nad1, nad3, atp6) revealed in two dogs a haplotype previously identified in pigs. The third dog was infected by a new haplotype differing only from the two others from dogs by two mutations in the nad3 gene. This latter haplotype is genetically closer to those identified in pigs rather than those from wild boars. Analysis of questionnaires completed by the owners revealed that the sampled dog population was almost exclusively composed of hunting dogs that had been infrequently dewormed. Most of the owners (78%) leave carcasses of hunter-harvested wild boar in close proximity to their dogs. Nevertheless, genetic results seem to indicate that the three dogs were infected due to their consumption of a pig's infected viscera following home slaughtering. This study confirms the role of dogs as definitive hosts of E. canadensis G6/7 in Corsica. Further molecular studies, notably in human cases, are needed to assess the zoonotic impact of E. canadensis G6/7 in this region.
