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 bear roundworm Baylisascaris transfuga has been identified in several host bears (Ursinae). However, limited genetic information is available on the bear roundworm in Japanese populations. This study evaluated the genetic composition of bear roundworms isolated from wild Japanese black bears indigenous to Lake Towada, Japan. First, we conducted genetic and/or molecular phylogenetic analyses based on cytochrome c oxidase subunit II and internal transcribed spacer 2 among Baylisascaris species. These analyses revealed that the identified roundworms were genetically B. transfuga. In addition, the average body size of the obtained roundworms in this study was almost the same as that previously reported for B. transfuga. This study represents an important step in genetic research on the roundworm B. transfuga in Ursinae bears not only from Japan but also from the rest of the world.
