1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

This study describes two new species of the genus Haemogregarina living in the Amazonian freshwater turtles Podocnemis expansa and Podocnemis sextuberculata. Haemogregarina species isolated from P. expansa have been characterized by the presence of encapsulated, folded immature gamonts, with the parasitophorous vacuole and fragmented chromatin located in the central region. In Haemogregarina found in P. sextuberculata, curved immature gamonts were observed inside a parasitophorous vacuole, with small, slightly arched meronts with rounded nuclei, and mature gamonts with trapezoid-shaped condensed nuclei. The novel 18S rRNA sequences obtained in this study clustered within a well-supported clade composed of hemogregarines isolated from other neotropical freshwater turtles from the families Podocnemididae and Geoemydidae. The hemogregarines found in this study were compared to Haemogregarina podocnemis from Podocnemis unifilis and Haemogregarina sp. from Podocnemis expansa, based on morphological, morphometric, and molecular data. The analysis supports the new species Haemogregarina karaja sp. nov. isolated from P. expansa and Haemogregarina embaubali sp. nov. found in P. sextuberculata.
