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

Background: Objective: The objective of this study was to predict the earliest time for infective Animals and procedure: The earliest date of Results: The earliest date of accumulation of 130 HDUs between 1996 and 2023 was May 25 (Windsor in 2012), and the latest was August 7 (Thunder Bay in 2004, Tobermory in 2014). The median date ranged from June 7 (Windsor) to July 18 (Thunder Bay). There were no significant changes in onset date over the study period for any location (all Q > 0.12).When 1°C was added to the mean daily temperature, the date until 130 HDUs was reached decreased by a median of 4.5 d for Windsor (range: 2 to 12 d), 7 d for Sault Ste. Marie (range: 4 to 17 d), and 6 d for Kitchener-Waterloo (range: 3 to 11 d). This resulted in an earliest date of May 19 for Windsor, June 8 for Kitchener-Waterloo, and June 18 for Sault Ste. Marie. Conclusion and clinical relevance: Described data suggest that current recommendations for heartworm prophylaxis in Ontario still provide abundant coverage for the estimated onset of risk, even when factors that could result in an earlier onset are considered.
