Comprehensive analysis of West Nile Virus transmission: Environmental, ecological, and individual factors. An umbrella review.
Review in One health (Amsterdam, Netherlands), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 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
Background: West Nile Virus (WNV) exemplifies the complexities of managing vector-borne diseases, expanding globally due to human activities and ecological changes. Originating from Africa and transmitted by Methods: An umbrella review was conducted. Comprehensive searches were performed in PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, Embase, and LILACS. Inclusion criteria were reviews involving WNV transmission agents (reservoirs, vectors, hosts) and associative analyses between environmental, ecological, or individual factors and WNV transmission. Data extraction and quality appraisal were performed using templates and the AMSTAR 2 tool. Results: From 404 retrieved studies, 23 systematic reviews and meta-analyses were included. Almost 70 % were low or critically low quality. The co-occurrence network highlighted emerging research on climate change and environmental factors. Temperature, precipitation, and land use significantly influence WNV transmission. Warmer temperatures enhance mosquito populations and viral replication, while extreme weather events like droughts increase mosquito-human contact. Climate change significantly contributes to WNV dynamics by altering temperature and precipitation patterns, enhancing vector proliferation, and extending transmission seasons. Ecological factors such as higher avian diversity, vegetation indexes, and distribution of mosquito species can impact WNV transmission significantly. Education and income levels influence preventive behaviors and infection risk, with lower socioeconomic status linked to higher WNV risk. Certain occupational groups are also at elevated risk of WNV infection. Conclusion: Environmental factors like temperature and precipitation critically affect WNV transmission by influencing mosquito behavior and avian reservoir dynamics. Socio-economic status and education levels significantly impact individual preventive behaviors and infection risk. Multifactorial influences on infection risk make necessary integrated surveillance systems and public health strategies. Longitudinal studies with One Health approaches are necessary to better understand WNV dynamics and reduce WNV transmission.
