Cross-Species Surveillance of Respiratory Viruses in Domestic and Wild Mammals of an Urban Atlantic Forest from Brazil.
Article in EcoHealth, 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
Our aim was to investigate respiratory viruses circulating in animals from the urban Atlantic Forest, which is located in the most densely populated area near Rio de Janeiro in Brazil. This study focused on the detection of Influenza A viruses and diverse coronaviruses, including SARS-CoV-2, in domestic and wild animals, including bats, nonhuman primates, rodents, and marsupials. From August 2020 to September 2022, biological samples were collected from a total of 72 pets, 66 primates, 20 rodents, 36 marsupials, and 390 bats. Samples were tested using RT-PCR for Influenza A and coronaviruses, and positive samples were sequenced. When blood samples were available, they were tested for SARS-CoV-2 antibodies. All terrestrial animals were negative for evidence of infection with SARS-CoV-2 and Influenza A viruses. However, samples from 17 phyllostomid bats, including Great fruit-eating bat (Artibeus lituratus), Silky short-tailed bat (Carollia brevicauda), Seba's short-tailed bat (Carollia perspicillata), Common big-eared bat (Micronycteris microtis), Greater spear-nosed bat (Phyllostomus hastatus), White-lined broad-nosed bat (Platyrrhinus lineatus), Little yellow-shouldered bat (Sturnira lilium), Greater round-eared bat (Tonatia bidens), and Common vampire bat (Desmodus rotundus), were positive for bat coronaviruses classified as Alphacoronavirus. Our study adds new information on the occurrence of coronaviruses in bats and contributes to a long-term program of Influenza surveillance. Developing active surveillance for viruses in wildlife species, as implemented in this study, is crucial for understanding zoonotic risks and preventing future global pandemics.
