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

Baseline and control intervention entomological and parasitological studies were conducted from September 2016 to February 2018 with the intended purpose of evaluating the effectiveness of implemented strategic trypanosomosis and vector control activities. The baseline and control intervention entomological studies compared and revealed a decline in the overall apparent fly density from 2.61 flies/trap/day during the baseline study to 1.68 flies/trap/day after the control intervention, representing a reduction of 64.37%. Additionally, the mean daily catch per trap showed a significant reduction from 5.23 ± 1.58 to 3.35 ± 1.58 (mean catch ± SD). The comparison of baseline and control study results showed a significant decline in the overall prevalence of bovine trypanosomosis, from 7.91% to 4.81% (likelihood ratio = 13.49,
