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

Panstrongylus geniculatus is the most widely distributed species of Panstrongylus in Brazil and merits attention from vector control programs due to its potential for domiciliation. Specimens infected with Trypanosoma cruzi have already been reported in both peridomiciliary and domiciliary environments. Building on these findings, we report, for the first time, the presence of P. geniculatus in the state of Alagoas and provide an updated dichotomous key (based on cytogenetic data) for species in Alagoas. Panstrongylus geniculatus has been identified in Boca da Mata, Joaquim Gomes, and Novo Lino. In light of the recent notification of Rhodnius domesticus and this record of P. geniculatus, we present an updated identification key enabling the differentiation of all species in Alagoas. Emphasis is placed on the importance of correctly identifying triatomine species because it is crucial for the development of effective control measures, thereby aiding in the mitigation of Chagas disease.
