Gushan virus: a newly discovered virus found in mosquitoes of Shandong, China.
Article in Virus genes, 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
Arboviruses persist as a significant threat to global public and human health. The advent of macrogenomics technology has substantially expanded our understanding of mosquito-borne viruses by facilitating the direct identification and characterization of viruses from diverse environmental samples. In 2022, we conducted mosquito surveillance in the Shandong region of China and discovered a novel virus, tentatively named Gushan virus based on the site of discovery. In this study, a total of 3170 mosquitoes were collected and divided into 62 pools based on species and collection locations. Quantitative reverse transcription PCR (qRT-PCR) and nested PCR were employed to detect Gushan virus nucleic acids in all samples. The results revealed that 16 pools were positive, with a minimum infection rate (MIR) of 0.5% (16/3,170). Concurrently, we successfully obtained one complete genome sequence and six partial sequences. Nucleotide homology analysis demonstrated a high degree of sequence identity, indicating that Gushan virus may maintain a stable genetic profile in the region. Phylogenetic analyses revealed that Gushan virus is most closely related to Drosophila immigrans Nora virus of the family Noroviridae. Taxonomically, Gushan virus belongs to the order Picornavirales, family Noroviridae, and genus Orthonoravirus. This study contributes new insights into the diversity of mosquito-associated viruses.
