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

Tick-borne diseases have been an increasing threat to human and animal health all over the world. Anaplasmosis is one of the emerging tick-borne diseases and has zoonotic potential. A new novel species, which was detected in China in 2010-2012 and provisionally named Anaplasma capra in 2015, causes zoonotic infections and infects many different animal species. In this study, we investigated the presence of A. capra in domestic ruminants from Turkey. A total of 468 blood samples (cattle, sheep, and goat) were examined by the gltA gene-specific nested polymerase chain reaction, revealing the presence of A. capra in six samples (1.28%): one of them from cattle (0.41%) and the other five from sheep (3.22%). According to DNA sequences results of the gltA gene, A. capra isolates identified in the present study were shown high nucleotide similarity with A. capra isolates detected from different hosts. However, the nucleotide differences were detected in the same nucleotide positions between A. capra isolates. For this reason, we thought that at least two different A. capra genotypes could be circulating in the world. As a result, it is seen that A. capra, which was determined to be a new species with zoonotic potential, was revealed in European and Asian countries and in different hosts. In order to raise awareness about human anaplasmosis infections, it is important to reveal the prevalence of the species in the world. The emergence of A. capra in Turkey reveals the need for a re-evaluation of the human and animal health risk analysis in terms of anaplasmosis.
