Epidemiological Characteristics of Severe Fever with Thrombocytopenia Syndrome.
Review in The American journal of tropical medicine and hygiene, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
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
Severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome (SFTS) is an emerging infectious disease primarily reported in Asia. This review aims to summarize studies on the epidemiological characteristics of SFTS. Literature from PubMed and Scopus was searched up to February 14, 2024. A total of 76 articles were eligible. Infections were reported in China, Japan, South Korea, and several other countries in Asia. The incidence of SFTS has been rising and reported from new areas across Asia. The incidence rate was highest in China, ranging from fewer than 0.1 to 4.2 cases per 100,000 population and reaching up to 127.6 cases per 100,000 population in some areas. Most cases occurred between April and December. Elderly farmers and veterinarians were the most affected group. Key epidemiological factors included direct contact with animals, outdoor work, vegetation near homes, rural or hilly residency, tick bites, and direct contact with blood or saliva from infected animals or humans.
