Serological and molecular detection of selected hemoprotozoan parasites in donkeys in West Omdurman, Khartoum State, Sudan.

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
In Sudan, donkeys are important animals, providing transportation and income possibilities. However, the prevalence of parasites in donkeys in Sudan has not been thoroughly characterized. Accordingly, in this study, we aimed to detect selected hemoprotozoan parasites in donkeys in West Omdurman, Khartoum State, Sudan, wherein people depend mainly on donkeys for their daily life. In total, 198 blood samples collected from donkeys in a local market in West Omdurman, were screened using serological and molecular diagnostic techniques. Serologically, 52 (26.3%), 56 (28.3%), and 19 (9.6%) samples were positive for trypanosomosis using Card Agglutination Test for Trypanosoma evansi, Trypanosoma evansi crude antigen -based enzyme-linked immuno sorbent assay (ELISA) and recombinant Trypanosoma evansi GM6-4r-based ELISA, respectively. ELISA for equine piroplasmosis revealed 156 (78.8%) and 10 (5.1%)Theileria equi- and Babesia caballi-positive samples, respectively. PCR detected Trypanosoma congolense, subgenus Trypanozoon, Theileria equi, and Babesia caballi in 18 (9.1%), 77 (38.9%), 18 (9.1%), and 8 (4%) samples, respectively. Of the 77 Trypanozoon-positive samples, 35 (45.5%) were confirmed as Trypanosoma evansi type A. To our knowledge, this is the first report of detection of Trypanosoma congolense in donkeys outside of tsetse-infested areas in Sudan.
