Detection of an Alphacoronavirus in a Brazilian Bat (Molossus sp.).
Article in Journal of molecular evolution, 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
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the uncertainty about aspects of its origin, in recent years there has been an increased interest in investigating coronaviruses in wild animals. Bats are hosts of the greatest diversity of coronaviruses to date, including the ancestors of viruses that have caused outbreaks in humans. Although in Brazil, information on coronaviruses in bats has expanded, still they remain unrepresentative. To help shed some light on this matter, we collected 175 samples from bats of different species from two Brazilian states. Here, we report the previously unknown presence of an alphacoronavirus in a bat (Molossus sp.) from Ceará. The phylogenetic analysis showed close relationships with alphacoronaviruses from Brazil and Argentina, but it was not possible to determine the subgenus or species of this virus using RNA-dependent RNA-polymerase (RdRp) domain of the nsp12 protein-coding sequence as it was distant from the specimens considered by the International Committee on Taxonomy of Viruses (ICTV). Finally, by performing High-Throughput Sequencing, we were able to find contigs mostly belonging to domains of the replicase of bat coronaviruses related to American bats of the Molossidae and Vespertilionidae families.
