Myiasis by Cordylobia anthropophaga and C. rodhaini (Diptera: Calliphoridae) in Polish travelers to Africa with new molecular data.
Article in Journal of medical entomology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Myiasis is a parasitic infestation of soft vertebrate tissues by larval stages of Diptera. We briefly described the lesion-causing genus Cordylobia Grünberg (Diptera: Calliphoridae). Three Polish travelers to Uganda, Gambia, and Senegal returned with furuncular myiasis. To identify the third-instar larvae removed from their skin, we examined the morphological features of the 3 specimens and sequenced a 5' barcoding fragment of the cytochrome c oxidase subunit I gene (COI-5P). One larva was identified as C. rodhaini Gedoelst, and 2 larvae were identified as C. anthropophaga (Blanchard). We were the first to submit the COI-5P of C. rodhaini to GenBank and the Barcode of Life Database. This is the first record of the importation of C. anthropophaga and the second record of the importation of C. rodhaini to Poland.
