1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

We present a comprehensive dataset on the prevalence of Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato (B. burgdorferi s.l.) in ticks across Eurasia, comprising 2528 records from 522 publications from 2000 to 2023. The dataset encompasses 6 tick genera and 73 tick species, with detailed documentation of 18 specific Borrelia genospecies as well as co-infections and untypeable genospecies. Each record provides detailed metadata, including tick species, life stages, collection methodologies, and geographical coordinates across various administrative levels. This unified resource addresses the lack of integrated surveillance data on B. burgdorferi s.l. across Eurasia and serves as a foundation for epidemiological analyses, predictive modeling, and evidence-based public health interventions for Lyme disease prevention.
