First documentation of a jaguar (Panthera onca) with otitis caused by Otobius megnini (Dugés 1883).
Article in Veterinary research communications, 2025. 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
Otobius megnini (spinose ear tick) is a cosmopolitan soft tick that parasitizes domestic and wild mammals, as well as humans. The larval and nymphal stages are common parasites that feed on blood inside the canal ears of hosts, while adults are nonfeeding and live off the host. Different nymphal stages of O. megnini were collected from a jaguar (Panthera onca) suffering from otitis in captive conditions from Guerrero, Mexico. This is the first documentation worldwide of O. megnini in a jaguar with otitis. The presence of this tick species represents a risk of transmission to animals and humans exposed to the nymphal stages of the tick.
