Insights into Infant Strongyloidiasis, Papua New Guinea.
Article in Emerging infectious diseases, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
The human-infecting parasite Strongyloides fuelleborni subspecies kellyi has been reported from the island of New Guinea. We analyzed fecal DNA extracts (n = 164) from 19 infants in Papua New Guinea by using Strongyloides real-time PCR and undertook metabarcoding of cox1 and 18S rRNA hypervariable regions I and IV loci. Eight infants were infected with Strongyloides spp.; 7 were infected with S. fuelleborni subsp. fuelleborni and 1 with a Strongyloides sp. previously misattributed to S. fuelleborni subsp. kellyi. Phylogenetic and haplotyping analyses indicated S. fuelleborni in Papua New Guinea belongs to the Indochina subclade of S. fuelleborni subsp. fuelleborni and is not a unique subspecies. We report molecular evidence of S. fuelleborni subsp. fuelleborni infection in humans in the Pacific. Our findings also demonstrate the potential co-existence of an undescribed human-infecting Strongyloides sp. on the island of New Guinea, indicating a need for renewed clinical and epidemiologic investigations into infant strongyloidiasis.
