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

Severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome virus (SFTSV) is an emerging tick-borne bunyavirus that causes a severe viral hemorrhagic fever (SFTS), with a very high case mortality rate, expanding epidemic areas, and increasing incidence. Due to the lack of an effective drug or vaccine for SFTS, reducing the incidence and mortality of SFTS primarily relies on decreasing the density of ticks and the number of their host animals. However, which tick species and vertebrate animal serve as the major reservoir and animal host of SFTSV are not clearly understood. In May of 2023 and June of 2024, we collected 2437 ticks from domesticated animals and grassland in Suizhou City, a prefecture of Hubei Province in central China. A total of 195 domesticated animal blood samples were collected, including 152 goats, 26 cattle, and 17 dogs. Ticks were grouped for RNA extraction according to their life stages and feeding status. RNA from each animal's blood and each group of ticks was extracted with an RNA extraction kit and tested for SFTSV with RT-PCR. Ticks were classified according to morphology, and representative ticks of each stage were confirmed with PCR amplification and DNA sequencing of the mitochondrial 16S RNA gene. Among the collected ticks, the majority were from goats (72.7%, 1772/2437), and
