Outbreak of melioidosis in a highly urbanized area.
Article in Emerging microbes & infections, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
In 2022, an outbreak of melioidosis occurred at a highly urbanized district (the SSP district) in Hong Kong. There was a 5-fold increase in cases compared to the average number of cases in the preceding years, with the SSP district accounting for 71.1% of the cases. A total of 568 environmental specimens were collected, including 290 environmental samples and 38 air samples from the freshwater service reservoirs (FWSRs), 16 water samples, and 224 environmental samples from the households of infected cases.
