Prevalence and distribution of trematodes hosted by Bithynia siamensis in Southern Thailand.

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
This study aimed to investigate the occurrence of larval trematode infections in bithyniid snails across five provinces in southern Thailand. A total of 1,413 Bithynia siamensis snails were collected between October 2021 and October 2022 using handpicking and scooping methods. Among these, 844 were identified as B. s. siamensis and 569 as B. s. goniomphalos. The snail samples were examined for parasitic infections in the laboratory using shedding and crushing methods. Among the 27 sampling sites, snails from 6 sites were infected with various trematode species (infection rate: 4.95%, 70/1,413). Evaluation of the morphological and internal organ characteristics of the cercariae allowed for the categorization of the trematodes into five species of trematodes (belonging to four families). The identified species included Echinochasmus pelecani (family: Echinostomatidae), Echinostoma revolutum (family: Echinostomatidae), Haematoloechus similis (family: Haematoloechidae), Loxogenoides bicolor (family Lecithodendriidae), and Stictodora tridactyla (family: Heterophyidae), and the infection rates for these species were 3.26% (46/1,413), 0.35% (5/1,413), 0.42% (6/1,413), 0.78% (11/1,413), and 0.14% (2/1,413), respectively. The cercariae from the identified trematode species were studied for DNA analysis. The phylogenetic lineage reveals relationships among the species, confirming the morphological distinctions.
