Developing a multiplex loop-mediated isothermal amplification assay (LAMP) to determine severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome (SFTS) and scrub typhus.
Article in PloS one, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 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
Severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome (SFTS) and scrub typhus are endemic zoonotic diseases that pose significant public health threats in East Asia. As these two diseases share common clinical features, as well as overlapping disease regions, it is difficult to differentiate between SFTS and scrub typhus. A multiplex reverse-transcription loop‑mediated isothermal amplification (RT-LAMP) assay was developed to detect large segments and GroES genes for SFTS virus (SFTSV) and Orientia tsutsugamushi (OT). The performance of the RT-LAMP assay was compared and evaluated with those of commercial PowerChek™ SFTSV real-time PCR and LiliF™ TSUTSU nested PCR for 23 SFTS and 12 scrub typhus clinical samples, respectively. The multiplex SFTSV/OT/Internal control (IC) RT-LAMP assay showed comparable sensitivity (91.3%) with that of commercial PowerChek™ SFTSV Real-time PCR (95.6%) and higher sensitivity (91.6%) than that of LiliF™ TSUTSU nested PCR (75%). In addition, the multiplex SFTSV/OT RT-LAMP assay showed 100% specificity and no cross-reactivity for blood from uninfected healthy patients and samples from patients infected with other fever viruses. Thus, the multiplex SFTSV/OT/IC RT-LAMP assay could serve as a useful point-of-care molecular diagnostic test for SFTS and scrub typhus.
