Genetic survey of cystic echinococcosis in farm animals in Oman.
Article in Tropical animal health and production, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers, 2 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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
Echinococcus granulosus sensu lato (s.l.) is the causative agent of cystic echinococcosis (CE) in animals and humans with a worldwide distribution affecting pastoral and agro-pastoral communities. Little is known about the genetic diversity and public health significance of E. granulosus s.l. among animals and human in Oman. This study was undertaken to investigate the circulating genotypes of E. granulosus s.l. in farm animals (camels, cattle, goats and sheep) by using multiplex PCR (mPCR) and sequence analysis of a fragment of the NADH dehydrogenase subunit 1 (NADH-1) gene. In this study, 39 hydatid cyst isolates from dromedary camels (n = 17), cattle (n = 12), goats (n = 9) and sheep (n = 1) from five governorates in Oman were collected. These isolates were analysed genetically to classify E. granulosus s.l. using a single-tube mPCR and further subjected to sequence analysis of mitochondrial NADH-1 gene. The results of mPCR revealed that most of the cyst isolates (71.8%) belonged to E. granulosus sensu stricto G1/G2/G3 genotypes, whereas 28.2% were linked to E. canadensis G6/G7 genotypes. However, sequencing of these isolates has confirmed the existence of the two genotypes E. canadensis G6 and E. granulosus sensu stricto G1 genotype. This study provides a molecular evidence of E. granulosus s.l. genotypes in Oman and confirms the predominance of the sheep and camel strains and their role in the transmission dynamics of CE in animals. The study will serve as a foundation for future planning and implementation for CE control program in Oman.
