Environmental Determinants of Dengue Fever: A Re-Emerging Threat in the Middle East.
Article in Health science reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Background: Re-emerging of dengue fever (DF), a neglected disease, is a potential threat in tropical and subtropical countries. The increasing reporting of positive cases of DF in Middle East and consequently in Iran is a major reason for concern. This paper aims to describe the environmental aspect of DF to prevent a new crisis in Middle East. Methods: Literature search was conducted on PubMed, Web of Science, Scopus, Science Direct and Google Scholar and related data of each paper was evaluated. Results: Recent climate changes, increased rainfall, international travel, and tourism have produced ideal conditions for the spread of Aedes mosquitoes in Iran. In the absence of specific treatments and vaccines, controlling mosquito populations is the most effective strategy to prevent dengue transmission. This study emphasizes the need for environmental monitoring and vector control to mitigate DF epidemics in Iran. Also, collaboration between environmental and health professionals is needed to develop and implement effective strategies. Conclusion: These findings improve the understanding of the effects of the environmental factors on DF and support prevention and control strategies in the Middle East. Investing in research to understand environmental factors for mosquito surveillance and control are critical steps towards sustainable and effective dengue management.
