Cladistics of Echinococcus granulosus Sensu Stricto Genotypes Infecting the Slaughtered Pigs.
Article in Acta parasitologica, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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
purposeEchinococcus granulosus sensu stricto (s. s.) consists of the most widespread genotypes (G1, G3) implicated in human cystic echinococcosis worldwide. The present study aimed to evaluate the role of pigs in the transmission dynamics of E. granulosus s. s. genotypes, including the phylogenetics, evolutionary divergence and haplotype network analyses of north Indian pig isolates along with GenBank
methodsIn totality, 223 slaughtered pigs were thoroughly screened for the presence of hydatid cysts. The amplification of the partial mitochondrial cytochrome C oxidase subunit 1 gene was performed for the molecular confirmation and phylogenetics of the retrieved metacestodes.
resultsThe molecularly confirmed and sequenced present study isolates (n = 2) clustered with the E. granulosus genotype G3. The very low evolutionary divergence values (< 0.0027) of the present study isolates with E. ganulosus genotype G3 indicated the absence of diverged lineages. The significantly negative values of Tajima's D (- 2.598) and Fu and Li's D (- 4.054) of the overall dataset and for the Asian sequences signified an expansion of population size. The overall dataset exhibited low nucleotide (0.067 ± 0.055) and high haplotype (0.574 ± 0.015) diversities, also alluding to demographic expansion. The haplotype network showed that the pig isolates from South America and Europe constituted the predominant haplotype, Hap_2 along with Hap_3 and Hap_6, primarily associated to E. granulosus genotype G1; whereas, the Indian isolates formed different haplotypes (Hap_1 and Hap_5) belonging to genotype G3.
conclusionsThe present study highlighted the important role of pigs in the transmission of E. granulosus s. s., which is of paramount significance given the public health and economic impact of cystic echinococcosis.
