Human brucellosis: Seroprevalence and associated exposure factors among the rural population in Nagpur, Maharashtra, India.
Article in Journal of family medicine and primary care, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
introductionBrucellosis is a recognised occupational threat among animal handler and raw animal product consumers. In India, there is a likelihood of missed diagnoses and under-reporting cases by physicians causing an extended debilitating illness. We steered research to conclude the seroprevalence and risk factors allied with Human Brucellosis (HB) among the rural population in Nagpur District, Maharashtra, India.
methodsClosed-ended questionnaires used for a cross-sectional study to collect data for demographics and risk exposure variables. 382 subjects' serum-samples were tested by using Rose-Bengal (RBPT) and ELISA technique. An odd ratio calculated for risk factors for HB reported positive or negative. Data were analysed by using SPSS.
resultsThe brucellosis seroprevalence in rural Nagpur was 1.83%. The mean age was 42.32 years, 78.5% were male, and 21.5% were female. Prevalence was higher among males [85.7%] than females [14.3%]. The risk for brucellosis among males (OR = 1.65, 95% CI = 0.19-13.92,
conclusionHealth education program is essential to generate awareness for brucellosis in the rural community to prevent animal to human disease transmission.
