Molecular epidemiology of peste des petits ruminants virus in Nigeria: An update.
Article in Transboundary and emerging diseases, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 17 papers, 1 of them a synthesis 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
Peste des petits ruminants (PPR) is a highly contagious viral disease that mainly affects goats and sheep in Asia, Africa and the Middle East. The PPR virus (PPRV) can be classified into four genetically distinct lineages (I, II, III and IV). All have been historically present in Africa, except the Asian lineage IV that has been spreading across the globe and across Africa in recent decades. Previous studies have identified the presence of lineage IV in Nigeria since 2010. In the present study, samples were taken from 429 small ruminants with PPR symptoms across Nigeria in 2017-2020 to provide an update on the distribution and genetic diversity of PPRV in the country. Sequences from a portion of the PPRV nucleoprotein (N) gene were obtained from 91 samples, 90 belonging to lineage IV and one to lineage II. Phylogenetic analysis identified at least four lineage IV sub-clusters in Nigeria, grouping samples across multiple regions. Our results suggest extensive endemic circulation of a wide range of PPRV strains across Nigeria and across borders with neighbouring countries, underlining the difficulty involved in controlling the disease in the region.
