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

The Diplostomidae Poirier, 1886 is a large family of digeneans within the superfamily Diplostomoidea Poirier, 1886. Members of the family are distributed worldwide and parasitize a diversity of tetrapod definitive hosts. Notably, only 2 mature diplostomids are known from crocodilians and both are suggested to be accidental infections. In this study, we use morphological and molecular data to describe Neofibricola n. gen. from a Nile crocodile Crocodylus niloticus collected in South Africa. We provide a description of adults and metacercariae of the type species, Neofibricola smiti n. sp., and metacercariae of a likely congeneric species. We generated partial 28S and internal transcribed spacer region ribosomal deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and cytochrome c oxidase 1 subunit mitochondrial DNA for both species and utilized the newly generated 28S sequences to examine phylogenetic affinities of these new taxa. In addition, we provide a new key to diplostomid genera, considering the substantial systematic changes and newly erected genera since the previously published key to diplostomid genera.
