1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

According to the WHO, echinococcosis is a neglected tropical disease of global importance. The Russian Federation (R.F.) is traditionally considered an endemic area of echinococcosis. This study aims to analyze the state of human infection in the R.F. in the 2000-2021 period, for which there is not enough consolidated data. Epidemiological data on human echinococcosis in the R.F. from 1 January 2000 to 31 December 2021 were collected through literature research (both published and grey literature) and official reports. From the 2022 selected records, 12 full-text articles, three doctoral dissertations, and 17 official reports were analyzed, all of which met the criteria for inclusion in the study. In the R.F., in the period from 2000 to 2021, echinococcosis (cystic (C.E.) and alveolar (A.E.) echinococcosis) has been continuously registered in humans (0.4-0.22 cases/100,000 inhabitants). Until 2013, the incidence of echinococcosis did not change (Pearson's r (N = 13) = 0.288,
