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

The standard method for diagnosis and therapeutic monitoring of dogs with demodicosis is microscopic examination of deep skin scrapings. Previous studies have compared deep skin scraping and microscopic hair examination to acetate tape impression with skin squeezing for the diagnosis of demodicosis but the latter has never been evaluated for therapeutic monitoring. The main purpose of this study was to evaluate acetate tape impression with skin squeezing as a therapeutic monitoring tool for dogs with juvenile onset generalized demodicosis. An area of skin with primary lesions for demodicosis was chosen and the 3 techniques were performed. The total number of mites including each of the
