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
Domestic cats can be parasitized by Mycoplasma haemofelis, 'Candidatus Mycoplasma haemominutum', and 'Candidatus Mycoplasma turicensis'. Although the molecular occurrence of hemoplasmas in domestic cats has been investigated in the five geographical regions of Brazil, no studies have been conducted in the states of Rondônia and Minas Gerais to date. The present work aimed to investigate the molecular occurrence of hemoplasmas in cats from four Brazilian states in the Northern, Central-Western and Southeastern regions of the country. Among 486 blood samples - 80 from Rondônia (RO), 100 from Goiás (GO), 155 from Minas Gerais (MG), and 151 from São Paulo (SP) - submitted to the endogenous gapdh gene-based PCR, 94.44% (459/486) were positive, of which 1.96% (9/459; 1 from RO, 2 from GO, 5 from MG, and 1 from SP) were positive in the qPCR assay for hemoplasmas based on the 16S rRNA gene. In the phylogenetic analyses, the obtained 16S rRNA (two genotypes) and 23S rRNA (three genotypes) sequences were positioned together with 'Candidatus Mycoplasma haemominutum'. The present study showed the first molecular evidence of infection by hemoplasmas in cats from MG and RO, contributing to a better understanding of the epidemiology of feline hemoplasmosis agents in Brazil.
