Systematic Review and Meta-analysis: Salmonella spp. prevalence in vegetables and fruits.
Synthesis in World journal of microbiology & biotechnology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
In this study, a systematic review and a meta-analysis were conducted to analyse recent worldwide information about the prevalence of Salmonella spp. in vegetables and fruits to estimate the effect of the different processes such as washing, cutting or disinfection, and place of sampling. A systematic search was conducted for articles from 2014 to 2020 published to date regarding prevalence of Salmonella spp. in vegetables and fruits, without excluding material by location, or author. It was possible to determine eight categories for vegetables and fruits in comparison with the meta-analysis which showed five categories due to data availability. Results showed prevalence for Salmonella spp. of 0.1%, 0.2%, 13.7%, 0.1%, and 0% for fruits, leafy vegetables, mixed vegetables related to ready-to-eat salads (RTE), tubercles, and tomatoes, respectively. Moreover, categories such as fruits, tubercles, and tomatoes as associated with different types of preparations and places of sampling (Retail stores, fresh products wholesale, street markets, distribution centers, farms, and processing plants) did not present a significant combined effect on the prevalence of Salmonella spp. Likewise, leafy, and mixed vegetables showed differences associated with a type of processing, where leafy fresh unprocessed vegetables had a significant positive effect on the prevalence of the pathogen regarding the RTE products. These findings may be useful for the construction of a quantitative model of risk assessment as a means to characterize the differences among the sort of vegetable, fruit, type of processing, and place of sampling.
