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

To investigate the prevalence and molecular characteristics of Cystoisospora sp. in blue fox (Alopex lagopus), Sheather's sugar floatation method was conducted to detect coccidia in 423 fresh fecal samples randomly collected from blue fox farms from three cities in China. The overall prevalence of coccidia was 1.4% (6/423), and three Cystoisospora sp. (Cystoisospora fennechi, Cystoisospora sp. I and Cystoisospora vulpina) were identified by their morphological characteristics. The 18S ribosomal RNA (rRNA) and cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI) locus sequences were sequenced for molecular biological identification, homology comparison, and phylogenetic analysis of Cystoisospora sp. by single-oocyst selection technology and multi-locus-nested PCR amplification. At the 18S rRNA and COI loci, C. vulpina had 99.48% and 99.59% homology, respectively, with Cystoisospora canis and Cystoisospora ohioensis from canines. Phylogenetic analysis indicated that C. vulpina was clustered in a clade with Cystoisospora sp. from Canidae, which the relatives are consistent with the hosts. To our knowledge, this is the first report on molecular identification and evolutionary analysis of C. vulpina at two different loci.
