Prevalence of Pentatrichomonas hominis and Tritrichomonas foetus in dogs and cats in Nanchang City, China.
Article in Parasite (Paris, France), 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
Tritrichomonas foetus and Pentatrichomonas hominis are two causative agents of trichomoniasis in dogs and cats, manifesting primarily through diarrhea symptoms. However, information on the prevalence and identification of T. foetus and P. hominis in dogs and cats in China is limited. Thus, to investigate the prevalence of trichomoniasis in dogs and cats in Nanchang city, South China, a total of 405 fecal samples were collected from 111 cats and 294 dogs. The presence of T. foetus and P. hominis were determined using the nested polymerase chain reaction (PCR) method, targeting the ITS1-5.8SrRNA-ITS2 of T. foetus, and 18SrRNA of P. hominis. The overall prevalence of T. foetus was 15.3% (62/405), with a prevalence of 5.8% (17/294) in dogs and 40.5% (45/111) in cats. The total prevalence of P. hominis was 17.3% (70/405), with a prevalence of 22.4% (66/294) in dogs and 3.6% (4/111) in cats. Statistical analysis revealed significant correlations between the prevalence of T. foetus and factors including breed, season and environmental conditions in dogs; in cats, there was a significant correlation with season, breeds and age. For P. hominis, the different sampling sites of dogs showed a significant correlation. Our results reveal that T. foetus is predominantly found in cats and P. hominis is predominantly found in dogs in Nanchang city. These findings contributed to effective prevention and control of trichomoniasis in dogs and cats in this region.
