Microsatellite markers for Opisthorchis felineus to understand its genetic diversity and transmission patterns of opisthorchiosis.
Article in Parasitology research, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Opisthorchis felineus is a food-borne trematode which causes opisthorchiosis and affects mainly the liver and bile ducts of the liver with a possible risk of bile duct carcinogenesis resulting in cholangiocarcinoma. In Russia, O. felineus is mainly endemic in Western Siberia (Ob and Irtysh river basins) and occurs throughout the Volga, Kama, Don, and Dnepr river basins. The prevalence, intensity, and clinical significance of human infections and the incidence of cholangiocarcinoma vary geographically in endemic regions. Currently, there is substantial evidence on genetic variation of O. felineus, but information on the population genetic structure is so far very scarce. Because microsatellite DNA of this parasite is not available, we for the first time isolated sufficient microsatellite loci to examine the genetic diversity and population structure of O. felineus, using multiple nuclear loci approach. A total of ten highly polymorphic microsatellite loci from a constructed enriched genomic DNA library were characterized, using 29 samples representing huge O. felineus metapopulation extended in latitude over 5000 km from Middle Europe to Western Siberia. At least three populations can be discerned as result of analysis of the microsatellite loci genetic diversity. Based on the results for the first time, a hypothesis was put forward about the formation of a modern habitat of O. felineus.
