Respiratory and intestinal zoonotic cryptosporidiosis in symptomatic domestic pigeons (
Article in Iranian journal of veterinary research, 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
Background: Domestic pigeons (Columba livia domestica Aims: To investigate cryptosporidiosis in domestic pigeons in Tabriz, Iran, 100 privately owned pigeons presenting weight loss and diarrhea were tested for Cryptosporidium spp. through parasitological, histopathological, and molecular tests. Methods: Modified Ziehl-Neelsen-stained fecal smears and histological sections of the trachea and small intestine were examined microscopically. Genomic DNA of fecal and tracheal specimens was examined by nested conventional PCR targeting Results: All pigeons were positive at PCR in their feces and trachea. Oocysts similar to the size of Cryptosporidium species were observed in stained fecal smears of 62% of pigeons. At the histopathological examination, Cryptosporidium Conclusion: Considering the high frequency of cryptosporidiosis reported here in symptomatic birds and that both identified Cryptosporidium species are zoonotic parasites, findings claim a public health risk assessment of this species of animals.
