Distinct distribution of HEV-3 subtypes across humans, animals, and environmental waters in Sweden.
Article in Emerging microbes & infections, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
We previously observed a notable discrepancy in the distribution of HEV-3 subtypes between wastewater and clinical samples in Sweden. To confirm this observation and comprehensively elucidate HEV-3 circulation patterns across humans, animals, and environmental waters in Sweden, we analysed the HEV genetic diversity in archived wastewater samples between late 2016 and early 2018, clinical cases between 2012 and 2024, and all available Swedish sequences from the NCBI Virus database. HEV RNA was detected in all archived wastewater samples, with subtype 3c being the only subtype identified. In typed clinical cases, subtypes 3f (45/126) and 3c (44/126) were nearly equally distributed, though regional dominance varied. When incorporating human sequences from other Swedish studies, subtype 3f became dominant (75/168). Analysis of all available sequences revealed that 3f (113/136) was the dominant subtype in
