Development and evaluation of a duplex RT-qPCR assay for the detection and identification of Mayaro and chikungunya viruses.

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
Mayaro virus (MAYV) is a mosquito-borne alphavirus that is widespread in the Amazon basin, where it co-circulates with the closely related chikungunya virus (CHIKV). Due to the limited surveillance and technical limitations of diagnostic assays (scarcity of commercial assays, serology cross-reactivity), the true burden of MAYV is uncertain. We designed a new RT-qPCR assay targeting the nsp1 gene for MAYV detection, which can be used in monoplex or duplex format. In the duplex format, the new MAYV assay is combined with a CHIKV assay and a second MAYV assay, both previously published. The lower limit of detection with a 95% positivity rate was determined to be <10 RNA copies/μL in monoplex and duplex formats for both MAYV and CHIKV. Monoplex and duplex assays proved to be linear within the tested range of approximately 10
