Host Resistance and Behavior Determine Invasion Dynamics of a Detrimental Aquatic Disease.
Article in Ecology and evolution, 2024. 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
Understanding the role of variation in host resistance and the multitude of transmission modes of parasites infecting hosts with complex behavioral interactions is essential for the control of emerging diseases. We used a discrete stage model to study the invasion dynamics of crayfish plague-an example of a detrimental disease-into a naïve host population that displays within-population variation in resistance of environmental infections and juvenile classes that are safe from contacts with adults. In the model, infection sources include four age classes of crayfish, contaminated carcasses, and free-dwelling zoospores. Disease transmission occurs via environment with a threshold infection density and through contacts, cannibalism, and scavenging of disease-killed conspecifics. Even if the infection is fatal, coexistence of the host and the parasite can be facilitated by variance of resistance and survival of the hiding juveniles. The model can be applied in the control of emerging diseases especially in crayfish-like organisms.
