The Evolution of the Order Siphonaptera Inferred from the First Mitogenome of the Family Pygiopsyllidae.
Article in Acta parasitologica, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
purposeThis study presents the first mitogenome sequencing of Aviostivalius klossi bispiniformis and provides a morphological description, while evaluating the phylogenetic position of Pygiopsyllidae within Siphonaptera.
methodsMorphological identification and imaging of A. k. bispiniformis were performed using a SZ2-ILST dissecting microscope, while its mitogenome was sequenced on the Illumina NovaSeq 6000 high-throughput sequencing platform. Bioinformatics softwares were used to annotate and analyze the structural characteristics and variations of the A. k. bispiniformis. Phylogenetic trees of Siphonaptera were constructed using both Maximum Likelihood (ML) and Bayesian analyses (BI).
resultsThe mitogenome of A. k. bispiniformis was 18,669 bp with a high AT content (79.7%). In A. k. bispiniformis, the trnL2 (UAA) gene exhibits a 9-bp anticodon loop, and the nad4-nad4L gene overlapping sequence was 10 bp. Both ML and BI analyses revealed an unstable phylogenetic position of Pygiopsyllidae within Siphonaptera.
conclusionIn conclusion, available phylogenetic analysis for fleas is subjected to partial taxa data and more taxa data is needed for further researches. This study promotes the understanding of evolution, genomics, and phylogeny of Pygiopsyllidae.
