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

BACKGROUNDTo spot potential introductions of West Nile virus (WNV) into Denmark, a national surveillance programme for WNV was established in 2011. The relevance of this programme was underscored in the late 2010s, when WNV was detected in areas close to Denmark.AIMWe describe the Danish WNV surveillance programme and its findings in 2011-2023.METHODSThe surveillance programme monitors mosquitoes, which are WNV vectors, and some mammalian animals and birds, which are WNV hosts. Surveillance samples are also tested for the closely related Usutu virus (USUV), which, like WNV, is a flavivirus. During the study, WNV and USUV RNAs were sought in 62 bats (sampled in 2022-2023), 5,661
