First molecular characterization and haplotype analysis of Ligula pavlovskii (Cestoda: Diphyllobothriidae) from Podiceps cristatus in Türkiye: a novel geographic record with phylogenetic insights.
Article in Parasitology research, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Ligulosis is an important parasitic disease of freshwater fish, causing serious economic losses in the fisheries industry. In this study, we report the distribution of Ligula pavlovskii in avian definitive hosts in Türkiye and the first genetically confirmed presence of this species in Podiceps cristatus (great crested grebe). To achieve this, the mitochondrial cox1 gene region was used for molecular characterization and phylogenetic assessment. The population structure was evaluated by applying haplotype diversity, DNA polymorphism, and neutrality tests to the sequences obtained. Visual representations of Ligula isolate from Türkiye were created using alluvial diagrams (molecularly identified) and sunburst diagrams (morphologically identified). Although only the cox1 marker was used in this study, the results provide reliable molecular support for species identification. The data obtained provide important contributions to the literature on the distribution and genetic diversity of Ligula spp. in Türkiye.
