Persistence of human Aichi virus infectivity from raw surface water to drinking water.
Article in Applied and environmental microbiology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Human Aichi virus 1 (AiV-1) is a water- and food-borne infection-associated picornavirus that causes gastroenteritis in humans. Recent studies on environmental waters showed a high frequency and abundance of AiV-1, suggesting that it might be an appropriate indicator of fecal contamination. We screened 450 surface and drinking water samples from a Tunisian drinking water treatment plant (DWTP) and the Sidi Salem dam for AiV-1 by real time reverse transcriptase PCR (RT-qPCR). The persistence of infectious particles was evaluated using an integrated cell culture approach coupled with quantitative molecular detection (ICC-RT-qPCR). In all, 85 (18.9%) water samples were positive for AiV-1 with viral loads ranging from 0.47 to 11.62 log
