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
A new species of Spirocamallanus Olsen, 1952 (Camallanidae), is described based on specimens found parasitizing Propimelodus eigenmanni (Siluriformes), an Amazonian fish. The new species has buccal capsule with 15-19 spiral ridges, males with caudal alae supported by 3 pairs of precloacal and 6 pairs of postcloacal papillae, and two terminal spikes on tail end, and females with a digitiform projection ending in two small spikes on tail end. The new species shares characteristics with a group of Neotropical Spirocamallanus that are characterized by the presence of caudal alae, 3 pairs of precloacal papillae, unequal spicules and the presence of spines on the tail tip of males. Several species of this group have been reported from marine environments, in contrast with Spirocamallanus delirae n. sp., which occurs in Amazon freshwaters. Among the Brazilian congeners placed in the referred morphological group are S. rarus, S. freitasi, S. macaensis, and S. halithophus, the last two being parasites of marine fishes. The new species differs from S. rarus (3-4), S. macaensis (12-15), and S. halithophus (10-15) based on the number of spirals in the buccal capsule and from S. fretasi based on the morphology of the larger spicule that is bifid in the former and undivided in the new species. The present description of Spirocamallanus delirae n. sp. adds new data to the biodiversity of parasites from freshwater siluriform catfish in the Neotropical region.
